Will you lose your license?

State licensing board rules, mandatory reporting triggers, and defense strategies for licensed professionals.

A professional license represents $100,000+ per year in earning capacity. Some licensing boards mandate self-reporting within DAYS of an arrest, not a conviction, an arrest. Missing that deadline can be an independent violation worse than the underlying charge. $297 vs career extinction.

  • Board action triggers, what initiates review

  • Profession-specific considerations
  • 10 questions split between criminal defense and licensing attorneys

Sample insight from a real report:

"In Florida, registered nurses must self-report any arrest to the Board of Nursing within 30 days, not just convictions. Failure to report is an independent disciplinary violation that can trigger suspension even if the criminal charge is ultimately dismissed."

What you're afraid of

Before you buy, here's what every defendant worries about.

Every citation in your report links back to a real CourtListener URL or a real state statute page. Your attorney can verify everything in under five minutes. We sit alongside your attorney — we don't replace them.

  • What if I take the wrong plea — or the wrong sentence?

    Most defendants take the first plea offered. We pull the comparable cases in your district and your judge's prior rulings, so you can see what the floor actually is before deciding.

  • What if my attorney isn't actually listening — or preparing?

    Most defendants leave their attorney's office with more questions than they came in with. Not because attorneys are bad — the meeting is short and you didn't know what to ask. We hand you the questions, scored against your charge.

  • I don't even know what I don't know.

    The hardest part of a criminal case is not knowing which questions matter. The Intelligence Brief pulls the most-cited opinions in your district + your charge, mapped to your judge's prior rulings, and surfaces the five questions that move the needle in front of this prosecutor.

  • What if I bring my attorney a number they dismiss?

    If you bring your attorney a number they can't trace to a source, the conversation is over. Every number in our report is a hyperlink. Your attorney clicks, verifies, and the conversation continues.

We're not here to replace your attorney. We're here to make sure you walk into their office knowing the right questions to ask.

What you're paying for is the time

Skip the reading. We already did it.

Defendants are already doing this work themselves — on r/legaladvice / r/Ask_Lawyers / Avvo Q&A, in Google searches, in the long thread of “what happens if I plead X” questions every public legal-help surface carries. The data is public. The reading is the work.

  • Your charging document + cited statutes: every statute referenced, every sub-section, every element of the offense, every cross-reference.

  • CourtListener opinion bulk (source): every published opinion in your district touching the issue this report covers.

  • r/legaladvice + Avvo Q&A (source): thousands of plain-language threads where defendants describe the same prep work this report condenses.

Public-data intel package, organized for your charge — for $297.

What we actually use

Every citation in your Professional License Risk Research resolves to one of these public corpora. Click any source to land on the maintainer's site and verify it exists.

  • CourtListener (opens in new tab)Free Law Project (501(c)(3) nonprofit)

    Every published federal and state court opinion, plus the dockets and citation links between them.

    Coverage: Decades of opinions across federal courts and most state appellate courts. Trial-court orders depend on whether each court publishes online.

  • Official state statute sites (opens in new tab)Each state's legislature (e.g. Online Sunshine for Florida)

    Current statute text for every state — the words of the law as the legislature enacted them.

    Coverage: Current and recent statutes. Historical versions vary by state. Statute text is authoritative; how courts apply it lives in the opinion record.

These are the public corpora your attorney can also pull. The work we charge for is the reading and the organizing — not access to the data.
