We will discuss how the two vary and how there may be some overlap between     the two. The process of a lawsuit will be discussed including, how long the process takes, what the process entails, what the outcomes can be, & how long it typically takes. Likewise, the process of a Licensing Board Disciplinary Proceeding  will  be examined including, how the process can start, what  the process entails, how long it takes and the potential outcomes.
