Nicole Valentine

If you are on the edge or undecided on whether or not to have Nicole Valentine represent you before the BRN, please heed my advice and let her fight for you. My case was unique and it involved a criminal charge. If you do some research on your own, you'll see that--unfortunately--a common cause for a...ccusations against RN licenses are DUI's. However, this was not the case for me. The cookie cutter approach would not work. Given that, Nicole provided the utmost attention to my case and guided me along the way. What I appreciated is how she communicated as the case progressed. Never was she patronizing, pessimistic, or apathetic. She called it as she saw it, gave me real feedback & guidance, and worked diligently for me. The result she got for me was nothing short of a miracle. Again, from looking at cases similar to mine, I was already preparing for a worse but realistic result. Yet, with Nicole's help, I got the best outcome possible. I am beyond thankful to her for saving my career, my position, and my life. I repeat: get Nicole and your team, you won't regret it.

I am very pleased and grateful to have hired Ms. Nicole Valentine & the firm. They worked meticulously in crafting my disclosure of my wet reckless to the BRN, while being client centered in understanding what I needed to present with my specific case. Nicole had advised me to do certain tasks, and... she revised my letter of explanation, which was crucial in this process. All in all, this firm truly brings a lot of value to someone like me in desperate need of help & guidance without being judgmental. I believe everyone with the right remediative mindset should get a second chance, and this firm truly believes that.

I thought my license was lost . My life’s work ( over 25 years ) was toast. Everything i had worked for was gone because of a terrible mistake. I made a big mistake. In the heat of an unprecedented moment of stress, I drove really, really drunk, and crashed my car which caused a minor accident. I... had over a 2.0 BAL. Nicole Valentine helped me put together a packet that summarized my life’s work. Therefore, the acupuncture board will not press any charges, or discipline me. I believe this is because Nicole Valentine went above and beyond, out of her way to present my unique case to my licensing board. I will be forever grateful to her. I actually asked her if I could pay her more. When was the last time you asked an attorney for that privilege? She and her team will do what it takes to protect you. I can't recommend her enough.

I recently had the pleasure of utilizing the services of Nicole Valentine, and can say the experience was outstanding. From the moment I reached out recommended by another, they were understanding my needs and concerns. They were attentive , heard how hurt I was yet were honest about the possibilit...ies or potential outcomes. They were impressive, speedy, efficiency I recieved assistance and pushed to not delay. So yes, I recommend her and the office of Goyette Ruano and Thompson for having a high standard of swift service if you are looking for quality customer service.

Nicole is hands down the best attorney I could have ever asked for! A couple years ago, I made a huge mistake and I was ultimately charged with a DUI. On top of the fact that I was extremely upset with myself over the whole situation and nervous about the court process, I was terrified about the idea... of my pharmacist license being disciplined and I had no idea what the next steps of my life would look like. I had worked so hard for so many years to become a pharmacist and I was terrified at the thought that I may have my license suspended/revoked. My criminal defense attorney, who was extremely helpful with the criminal proceedings, advised me to reach out to an experienced professional license defense attorney to help me with the licensing side of this process. That's when I reached out to Nicole -- the best decision I could have ever made for my case. Nicole handled my case with tremendous care and consideration, and she helped me SO much with every step of the process. Initially, Nicole wrote a collateral consequence letter for my criminal defense attorney, which ultimately helped get my case reduced to wet reckless driving! This was a huge initial success for the criminal proceedings, but there was still the licensing side to handle. After the final court hearing, Nicole then helped me compile all of the documents I would need and organized them into a packet that she sent to the pharmacy board in a very timely manner. If it weren't for Nicole and her amazing expertise in the matter, I would have been doomed at this point because there were a lot of different documents that needed to be sent and I honestly would not have even thought of some of them. After some time had passed, my case was ultimately dismissed and Nicole immediately helped me report the dismissal of my case to the pharmacy board. After what felt like an eternity of waiting, coupled with lots of anxiety and uncertainty, the case was ultimately closed and the end result was no discipline!!! This was the best news I could have ever received and I finally feel like I can breathe again! There were so many times throughout this process where I had questions, felt stressed, and didn't know what to do, and Nicole and her team were there for me every single time. To Nicole and the team at Goyette, Ruano & Thompson, thank you so much for everything! You guys are amazing! To anyone reading this, I HIGHLY recommend Nicole Valentine for your legal needs!
