The Complaint and Enforcement Process
The complaint and enforcement process of each Texas licensing board is dictated by their internal rules and the Texas Occupations Code. While each licensing board complaint process is unique, a few common threads exist:

  • Every complaint the board has jurisdiction over is thoroughly investigated. Even if you believe a complaint is meritless, it is important that you take it seriously and properly defend yourself from the start.
  • During the complaint process the licensee is given due process―notification of the complaint, an opportunity to respond to the allegations, a fair and impartial process, the right to an attorney, and the right to appeal a board decision.
  • The authority to take disciplinary action against a licensee.
    • Generally speaking, licensing boards are given broad discretion in what type of discipline they may impose and under what circumstances.
    • Disciplinary action can include license suspension or revocation, imposing a probation period, mandating additional terms to licensure, such as additional education credits or completion of other requirements, fines, administrative penalties, and/or other disciplinary measures deemed appropriate by the board.
