How We Advocate for Veterinary Technicians Before the TBVME
The Texas Board of Veterinary Medical Examiners (TBVME) is the state agency responsible for regulating veterinary professionals, including veterinarians and veterinary technicians. Its mission is to ensure the delivery of safe and ethical care to animals by enforcing professional standards and investigating complaints against license holders.
If the TBVME receives a complaint about your practice, it has the authority to conduct investigations, impose disciplinary actions, or even revoke your license. Here’s how our veterinary technician license defense attorneys in Texas can support you:
- Reviewing complaints and evidence: We carefully analyze the complaint and related documentation to understand the allegations and identify potential defenses.
- Preparing responses to the TBVME: Crafting a strong, well-structured response is key to addressing the board’s concerns effectively and minimizing the risk of severe penalties.
- Representing clients at informal settlement conferences or formal hearings: Whether it’s negotiating during an informal conference or advocating for you in a formal hearing, we provide skilled representation to uphold your rights.
- Negotiating agreements or mitigating penalties: When appropriate, we work to negotiate resolutions that safeguard your license and professional standing, aiming to reduce penalties or avoid disciplinary actions altogether.
At Bertolino LLP, we are committed to protecting your career and professional reputation. Our approach to defending veterinary technician licenses is thorough and tailored to your unique situation.
Types of Complaints Our Veterinary Technician License Defense Lawyers Handle
Veterinary technicians play a vital role in animal care, and their actions are held to high professional standards. Complaints to the TBVME can arise from various issues, potentially jeopardizing your license and career. Here are some common reasons veterinary technicians face disciplinary action:
- Allegations of malpractice or negligence: Errors in animal treatment, failure to follow proper protocols, or mistakes that result in harm to an animal can lead to serious complaints.
- Impairment or substance–related concerns: Allegations involving controlled substances or impaired behavior during work hours may carry serious implications for your license.
- Criminal charges or convictions: A criminal conviction, whether related to your professional duties or personal life, may prompt an investigation by the TBVME.
- Recordkeeping violations: Failing to maintain accurate or complete medical records for animals in your care is a common reason for complaints, as it can compromise the quality of care provided.
- Unprofessional conduct: Behavior deemed unethical, inappropriate, or disrespectful to clients, colleagues, or employers can lead to allegations of unprofessionalism.
- Reports filed by clients or colleagues: Allegations, whether valid or unfounded, can lead to investigations that require a thoughtful, detailed response.
If you are facing any of these issues, Bertolino LLP can help. We understand the unique demands of your profession and work to safeguard your license and professional standing.

The Importance of Acting Quickly When Facing Veterinary Technician License Complaints
If you’ve received a notice or complaint from the Texas Board of Veterinary Medical Examiners (TBVME), time is of the essence. Acting quickly helps safeguard your veterinary technician license and avoids unnecessary complications. Here’s why:
- Deadlines for responding to complaints: The TBVME has strict deadlines for responding to complaints and requests for information. Missing these deadlines can result in additional penalties or the loss of the opportunity to present your side of the story.
- The advantage of preparing a strong case early: The sooner you respond, the more time you and your attorney have to gather evidence, prepare a strong defense, and address any allegations effectively. Early preparation gives you the best chance of achieving a favorable outcome.
- Avoiding escalation of disciplinary measures: Ignoring or delaying action can lead to an escalation of the board’s investigation, harsher penalties, or even immediate suspension of your license. Timely responses demonstrate professionalism and a commitment to resolving the issue.
By acting quickly and securing legal representation, you can take control of the situation.
