Professional Misconduct

Professionals who offer specialized services are held to strict ethical standards and are expected to act in the best interests of those they serve—whether clients, patients, or customers. When these standards aren’t met, it’s considered professional misconduct. Misconduct can take many forms, from negligence and poor judgment to actions that are outright harmful or unlawful. The fallout from such behavior can be severe, including criminal prosecution, lasting damage to one’s reputation, and the permanent loss of a professional license.
