More details to this question:
I am a Domestic Violence counselor and the owner of Clear View Counseling. A new client entered treatment and was not happy with ther evaluation and has filed a grievance against me. I have 30 to respond to the allegations and am looking for a lawyer that does this kind of thing to guide me in my answer and be there if I have to go in front of the board or court or whatever they do. The letter suggested getting one set up in case.

I have previously been on the DVOMB and am familiar with the DVOMB Treatment Standards. While I have not handled a case where a client has filed a grievance agasinst a treatment provider, following the DORA rules and responding to the complaint is something that should be fairly easy to figure out. I suspect if you followed the Standards protocol for the evaluation the complaint will not go very far.
