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.

RN DUI
Nicole was absolutely amazing every step of the way. She got my DUI expunged in record time at 17months and saved my nursing license. I just wish I would have found her sooner.

Teacher
Nicole Valentine did a great job providing a collateral consequence letter that helped reduce my DUI to a wet reckless. She also contacted Human Resources for me which helped make the process a lot less stressful. I appreciate the effort she made in protecting my teaching license.

"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."
