California license law attorney or lawyer is a common search phrase. The proper area of law, however, is administrative law. Professional license defense, or license law, is one area of administrative law. Searching for a California administrative law attorney may help you find the right “license law” attorney.

Our client is an EMT (Emergency Medical Technician) licensed by the California Emergency Medical Services Authority (EMSA). The EMSA subpoenaed our client’s medical records from a local hospital in response to allegations of illicit drug use by an anonymous source. In order to protect our client’s right to privacy, we filed objections to the subpoena with the hospital and filed suit in the Bay Area to quash the subpoena. In response to our lawsuit, the EMSA filed a separate action against the hospital to enforce the subpoena in Sacramento Superior Court.
