Representation of Florida Licensed Professionals in Defense of Administrative Admission and Disciplinary Defense matters

Joe Corsmeier defends professionals in all types of licensing cases. For specific information, feel free to call me at (727) 799-1688 or email or look at the individual practices area pages elsewhere on our website.

When you are faced with an inquiry or challenge to your professional license it can be a very frightening experience. When you are faced with the government initiating a challenge to your right to earn a living you must take steps to defend yourself and/or minimizing the impact such an action will have on your life.

Joe Corsmeier handles the defense of licensure cases in venues from The Florida Bar to the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation (sometimes called the DPR or the DBPR) and all related agencies such as The Board of Medicine, the Board of Nursing, The Board of Surveying and Mapping, FREC, Department of Insurance, Department of Financial Services, etc. I also defend these same professionals in all types of malpractice claims and all related claims such as breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, negligence and more.

If you have received an Administrative Complaint and "Election of Rights" form or other notification of an action against your license you should not delay in beginning your defense. In most cases you have only 20 days from the date you received notice of the action to decide how to proceed and make your election of rights.

If you have been sued or threatened with a lawsuit, I can and will vigorously defend your interests. If you have insurance, you can typically request that I be appointed under your policy to represent your interests. I can also provide secondary counsel to persons and entities that have primary counsel through an insurance policy.

If you have not been sued but you are concerned about some matter, I can give you guidance on how to approach the problem with an eye toward minimizing your exposure.
