Protect Your Professional License

As any licensed professional can attest, obtaining a professional license is no small task. However, certain circumstances can put your license at risk – sometimes due to events that are out of your hands. If you have been contacted by your licensing board, the Attorney General’s office or another state agency, it is critical that you contact an experienced license defense attorney to avoid your license being restricted, suspended or revoked. The attorneys at the Law Office of Sivertson and Barrette, P.A., are here to assist you and aggressively defend your license and livelihood. Backed by more than 40 years of experience, our skilled lawyers are committed to advocating for professionals throughout Minnesota.
