Some professionals aren't allowed to practice or enter into any contracts without having a current valid licensed issued by the state. For examples, in California, lawyers, building contractors, and real estate agents must be licensed, otherwise they are automatically considered negligent.

In Florida, if a person or entity is conducting business in an area which requires a Florida license (construction contractor for example) and the person or entity does not possess the required license, any contract that person or entity enters is not enforceable by that person or entity. However, the innocent party, as long as they were unaware of the non-licensure, may enforce the contract.
