Conviction of a crime, or a medical malpractice lawsuit can result in adverse consequences to your employment and your professional license. The benefit to hiring an attorney like me is that I have experience with defending criminal, licensing, and medical malpractice lawsuits. I can fully advise you of any collateral consequences so that you can make an informed decision about your livelihood.
Please reach out for a free consultation so I can help you! I rarely check messages from Avvo, but you can find me on the State Bar website or look me up at my new firm by searching for Low, McKinley & Salenko.
I cannot guarantee results but I will fight to achieve the best possible outcome for you.

Hire this lawyer!

I am an RN in California and the board of registered nursing in this state is ruthless and unforgiving. Needless to say, I was terrified. If you are in a similar situation, listen to me: ...

Best Decision
I am a 27 year old RN with a DUI (0.16%) and a collision, first offense. After hiring a DUI lawyer who promised me he had nursing experience and then denied it later and left me high and dry with the BRN, I found Nicole through RN Guardian. I had called many others who claimed RN/DUI specialty who of...

Out-of-state RN
Nicole was nothing short of a life saver. I was an out-of-state RN with a California nursing license who made the mistake of drinking and driving. The CA BRN was and still is (2.5 years later) after blood, and my criminal attorney, who said he handled nurses cases in the past, obviously hadn’t and re...

Helped me get my RN license
Nicole Valentine assisted me in acquiring approval from the California Board of Registered Nurses to test for my RN license. When I was much young (15 years ago) I had a few alcohol-related misdemeanors and was worried that I might not be allowed to sit for examination and become a Nurse. I reached o...
"I wholeheartedly endorse Nicole. I have worked with her on opposing matters for the past several years and recently together as co-counsel. She is always well prepared, articulate and professional. Nicole is a true and zealous warrior for her clients."
"I endorse this lawyer. She is very bright, competent and she fights hard for her clients. She’s also a great communicator."
"I have referred several nurses in trouble with the BRN (DUI, stealing medications, etc.) to Nicole - all of them have been happy with her representation and results. I've been impressed enough to refer other lawyers to her. She works well with other attorneys to achieve a result that is good both on the criminal front and the licensing front."
