Strong Background Helping Clients in the Division of Professional Regulation

The division administers and enforces 46 legislative acts that regulate the conduct of many professions in Illinois.

Looking to apply for a processional license? You need an experienced lawyer. Contact us by e-mail or call 1-877-440-0020 to schedule a free initial consultation.

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

Nurse Storms Out of the Operating Room During an Operation — A registered professional nurse was working as the circulating nurse in the operating room (OR) during a surgery. The surgeon was extremely rude and insulting to her, and she stormed out of the OR half-way through the surgery because she was in extreme emotional distress due to his behavior. The Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation (IDFPR) accused the nurse of unprofessional conduct and patient abandonment. We successfully defended on the basis that a medical assistant remained in the OR to perform all of the circulating duties for the duration of the surgery, there was no danger to the patient, and there were no complications during or after the surgery. The IDFPR closed the file with no discipline taken against the nurse.
