Professional:
Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN)
Primary issue:
Client LPN tested positive for butalbital at a pre-employment drug screening, but the LPN claimed to not have been aware of what was ingested.

Result:

Areas of Law:
Healthcare Licensing
Professional Licensing Defense
Substance Abuse & Impaired Practitioners
