Protect and Defend your Livelihood

Your State of California Acupuncture Board license is by far one of your most valuable assets. The time, money, and personal effort you have invested in educating yourself and achieving Acupuncture licensure is significant. When your acupuncture license is threatened with revocation, suspension, or probation by an accusation, or when your application for licensure is denied with a statement of issues, your entire livelihood is threatened. You must act promptly.

You Have Legal Rights

You have the right to defend yourself by demanding a trial before an administrative law judge where you can confront and cross examine witnesses, and challenge the investigative findings of the State of California Acupuncture Board. You may issue requests for discovery, subpoenas to compel the appearance of witnesses and documents. You may call witnesses in your own defense, including fact, expert and character witnesses, and introduce mitigation evidence to context. You may challenge the decision to the superior court.

Don’t Risk Going It Alone

Don’t waste valuable time and risk your Acupuncture license trying to do this yourself. You may irretrievably forfeit important legal rights by simple mistakes, and by not knowing how to approach this crisis. Hiring a knowledgeable State of California Acupuncture Board license defense attorney early during the investigation stage of your license discipline case can considerably improve the likelihood of a positive outcome for you.

California Acupuncture BoardAs an acupuncturist, your practice of nontraditional medicine, originating more than two thousand years ago, makes you an integral player in the world of alternative health care providers.

Among the reasons people visit your acupuncture practice are headache pain, asthma, or arthritis. But we know that as an acupuncturist, you also treat a wide variety of other conditions such as addictions, stroke rehabilitation, menstrual cramps, lower-back pain, carpal tunnel syndrome and even tennis elbow. Many physicians include your services as a complementary form of medicine to help treat and control a plethora of conditions and illnesses, your fees now reimbursable through many insurance carriers.

You must be both skillful and competent when accurately inserting and manipulating needles to avoid the potential for causing pain, infection, and punctured organs. But your skills are not contained there. Your patients also rely on you for recommendations for lifestyle changes and modifications in diet and exercise whenever warranted.

Not unlike that of a physician, an acupuncturist’s license can be subjected to or included in malpractice lawsuits and accusations by patients. If you have prepared yourself for a career as an acupuncturist and are finding roadblocks being thrown in your way by the state of California Department of Consumer Affairs’ Accupuncture Board, or have been notified of an accusation against your current license, don’t go it alone.
