Administrative Law

Counsel for California Administrative Law Proceedings

Given the pervasive nature of government regulation in today's society, businesses and professionals in practically every industry can expect to encounter contact with a state administrative agency eventually. Whether you need help with a business licensing problem, an attorney ethics compliance issue, or even education law matters concerning accreditation or support for special needs, Los Angeles administrative hearings lawyer Mr. Wechsler can advise and assist you. Contact the Law Offices of Zachary D. Wechsler to learn more about our firm's ability to help you resolve regulatory issues before California state agencies.

Our experience with contested matters involving license defense, enforcement actions, waivers, denial of certification, background checks and moral character qualifications, and other problems can give you a significant advantage at every stage of an administrative action. We can help you negotiate the bureaucratic steps that must be overcome in order to receive a license or permit, and we can help you prepare and present your defense to disciplinary or enforcement actions that could jeopardize your business and livelihood.

We offer advice and representation in matters involving such businesses, professions and state agencies as the following:

  • Alcohol and drug treatment program licensing and certification
  • Auto repair and smog inspection services
  • Building, landscape, and highway project contractors
  • California Department of Children and Family Care Services
  • California Department of Insurance
  • California Horse Racing Board
  • Certified public accountant licensing and discipline
  • Medical and health care licensing, regulation and enforcement for physicians, dentists, psychologists, optometrists, nurses, and other health care professionals
  • Real estate brokers, appraisers, and sales staff licensing
  • State Bar of California licensing and attorney discipline

Both the substance of the law and the procedural aspects of administrative proceedings before state agencies are different from those that characterize civil litigation in superior court. Our familiarity with these distinctions can streamline your path to a favorable result. Whenever necessary, however, we can take an adverse decision to court through a writ of mandamus or file a formal appeal, depending on the procedural details of your situation.

To learn more about how you can benefit from our firm's knowledge of the inner workings of California’s administrative proceedings, contact an experienced lawyer at the Law Offices of Zachary D. Wechsler in Los Angeles.
