A large number of professions fall under the regulatory oversight of the Virginia Department of Criminal Justice Services ("DCJS"). Failure to comply with the statutes and DCJS regulations imposed on these professions may result in costly fines, probation, suspension, and even license or registration revocation. Such disciplinary actions can stop a business in its tracks.

Seeking experienced and knowledgeable legal representation is a critical step in protecting a business and maintaining a competitive foothold in the industry. As Senior Assistant Attorney General, James Towey served as counsel to DCJS and, as a result, possesses a detailed, working knowledge of the statutes and regulations governing each profession that falls under DCJS oversight. James offers practical and cost-effective solutions on all legal and regulatory matters affecting DCJS regulated businesses and professionals.
