ERIN JOYCE PROFESSIONAL LICENSING & STATE BAR DEFENSE

Protecting Your Professional License

If you are an attorney, a doctor, or any other highly trained professional, you have built your profession by obtaining your license. You devoted countless hours and resources to complete your degree. You studied to pass the most difficult Bar exam in the country. Your license is invaluable. So is your reputation. You can’t work in your profession without protecting both.

When your license is on the line, call Erin, who spent over 18 years as a State Bar prosecutor. She has the experience you need to guide you through the sometimes Byzantine State Bar investigation process. Erin has experience in licensing matters involving attorneys, doctors, EMTs and paramedics.

Don’t make the mistake of responding to the State Bar (or any investigating agency) on your own. Too many times, professionals create more problems with their responses than they faced at the outset. With almost 30 years of experience, Erin Joyce has helped professionals throughout Los Angeles, Orange County and Southern California avoid arbitrary and inequitable sanctions, keep their licenses and reestablish their careers through the reinstatement process.

They delivered Without going into details, I really needed an attorney well versed in a specific area of practice. Attorney Alan Gordon was heaven sent. He kept me updated and clearly explained every step of the way what to expect. I always felt well informed and my calls or emails were addressed within the hour. I would definitely recommend their services to any one I know needed their specific niche of practice.

Outstanding Moral Character Representation and Support I cannot recommend this law firm highly enough for anyone dealing with professional licensing issues in California. I was in a difficult position when my previous attorney could no longer continue with my case, and I was fortunate to find Erin Joyce and Robin Brune.

Erin and Robin stepped in seamlessly and immediately made me feel supported and informed. I worked closely with Robin and she provided prompt, thoughtful, and detailed feedback on every part of my application and took the time to explain each step of the moral character determination process. Her guidance was clear, strategic, and always tailored to my situation. She also made helpful recommendations that ultimately strengthened my application.

Thanks to Robin’s expertise and dedication, I was successful in passing the moral character determination. I truly believe I would not have achieved this outcome without her support. If you're looking for someone who is knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely cares about your success, I highly recommend working with Robin.
