Extensive Experience in Professional Licensure Qualifications

Since 1996, attorney Thomas Zimmerman has represented Illinois professionals seeking to become licensed or looking to protect their licenses from disciplinary action. Mr. Zimmerman has an in-depth understanding of the IDFPR, which ensures professionals are adequately qualified prior to licensure and enforces legislation to make sure high standards continue to be met after licensing.

The Division of Professional Regulation oversees over 240 different professions. For each professional license type, there are specific requirements that must be met and examinations that must be taken to qualify for the license.

If a complaint is filed against your license, your career and livelihood could potentially be at stake. Retaining an attorney's services is not required at any point in an IDFPR investigation or hearing. However, by hiring representation that is well-versed in the IDFPR's structure and protocols, you send the message that you are as committed to upholding high professional standards as the IDFPR.

Verdicts & Settlements

Locksmith Agency Accused of False Advertising - The City of Chicago Department of Consumer Services filed an administrative complaint against a locksmith agency for allegedly advertising business addresses at locations within the City where the agency did not actually maintain a physical place of business. We successfully represented the locksmith agency by negotiating a deal whereby the City dropped the charge in exchange for the locksmith agency agreeing to request the removal of all addresses situated within the city at which the agency did not maintain a physical place of business from all publications listing such an address.
