Our Client, a Medical Radiologist (“J.J.”) was investigated by the Texas Medical Board (“Board”), for two criminal charges on his record, pursuant to the transfer of jurisdiction over Medical Radiologists from the Texas Department of Health and Human Services (“DHHS”). J.J. had previously disclosed both offenses to DHHS upon becoming licensed for the first time, and, yet, the Board still proposed public discipline, which may have interfered with J.J.’s employment prospects and professional reputation.
E.G., as Executor of Estate of R.G., Decedent v. R.V.
By virtue of our substantial knowledge of the legal authority governing the manifold professional licenses recognized in Texas, we successfully mediated a commercial services contract dispute. Just before mediation, we devised a legal theory, which revealed said contract to have been illegal and void, due to Defendant (“R.V.”) lacking the statutorily-required licensure to perform the commercial services contracted for. Because Decedent (“R.G.”) was not aware that Defendant was not properly licensed, E.G. reserved a viable claim to recover under the void contract.
