California pharmacists are licensed by the California State Board of Pharmacy, a branch of the Department of Consumer Affairs. The California State Board of Pharmacy is charged with protecting the health, safety, and welfare of California residents and is therefore responsible for licensing, monitoring, regulating, and disciplining pharmacists and pharmacist technicians.

Investigation
If someone files a complaint against you with the Board of
Pharmacy (BOP), the BOP may instigate an investigation against you. The
attorneys at MarcarianLaw Firm, P.C. will request a copy of the complaint, assist
you in the preparation of any statement, prepare you for the investigation
interview, and represent you at the interview with the investigator.
It is important to have experienced counsel with you at an
investigation interview to assist you in answering any questions appropriately,
and advising you when not to speak. With the right advice and counsel, an
investigation may end at the interview stage. If not, your licensing body may
choose to file a formal complaint against you called an Accusation.
Why You
Shouldn’t Surrender Your Pharmacist License
Occasionally, pharmacists will not challenge suspension
orders and will instead surrender their licenses. They may do so because of fear
of additional action because they no longer wish to practice in that state, or
because there is some truth to the allegation and they believe they cannot save
their pharmacy license.
Only in very rare circumstances is surrendering a pharmacist
license the best or only course of action.
Why Hire a Pharmacist
License Attorney?
If you are under criminal investigation or charged with a
crime, would you represent yourself? If you were the subject of a civil
lawsuit, such as a malpractice action, would you represent yourself? A prudent
pharmacist would retain an attorney with experience and expertise in those
areas of law.
