Jim McGovern

I was faced with a situation that was going to change my life forever (and not in a good way)! I was scared and honestly had no idea what to do. After calling several lawyers, I talked to Jim. I knew from our hour long conversation (at no charge) that he was the one I needed. He is very knowledgeable... and explained everything from the beginning to the end! Everything is finally over as of today and I can't thank him enough! His office staff are amazing too!

James McGovern has been my attorney since 2014. I hired Mr. McGovern after I received a notice of an investigation regarding my nursing license. I immediately knew from our intial phone conversation that he was experienced with the process of the Ohio Nursing Board and told me step by step what I cou...ld expect next. He also provided me with options and assured me that he could help. I followed all of the advice Mr. McGovern and am currently working as an RN. A couple things really stood out for me while working with Mr. McGovern; when I had to appear in person at the OBN, Mr. McGovern had me meet at his office and then drove me to the appointment downtown Columbus. This unexpected courteousy relieved a lot of anxiety and frustration and gave us a chance to talk prior to the meeting. Also, Mr. McGovern communicated promptly through email and kept my attorney fees to a minimum. I highly recommend having legal representation while dealing with any organization that has control over your licensure. I noticed that because of Mr. McGovern, it appeared that the OBN responded to his inquiries much faster than they would have responded mine. Mr. McGovern made me feel safe, reassured and I felt as if someone was on my side every step of the way.

Mr. McGovern has helped me and my family through some very difficult legal issues with the State Medical Board. He has always been very professional in his dealings and very knowledgeable about what would be likely outcomes. I would certainly recommend him as counsel if you are in need of someone w...ho has had experience in dealing with the Medical and Nursing Boards.
