Meet Your RN Guardian License Defense Team
THE PARTNERS: Paul Goyette, Esq. and Jennifer Coalson-Perez
RN Guardian was founded by one of the most well-known and well-respected labor and employment attorneys in California, Paul Goyette. Goyette spent his entire career representing tens of thousands of police and firefighters and other public safety members. All of those clients had a defense plan that they paid into, so if they were ever brought under investigation, their legal fees were covered. Because of Goyette’s stellar reputation for winning administrative cases for police and fire, his firm was eventually sought out by nurses, needing an administrative law attorney to defend their licenses with the BRN, only these nurses weren’t covered. The nurses had to foot their own bill because RN Union dues don’t cover BRN license issues and malpractice insurance only reimburses on a case by case basis with a cap. So Goyette established RN Guardian as a way for nurses to proactively protect their licenses, just like the rest of the world protects their careers.
Jennifer Coalson-Perez initially came on board as the Executive Director of RN Guardian. With her background at the California State Legislature, she was the ideal candidate to direct the program. Jennifer’s passion for advocating for nurses and her dismay with the one-sidedness of BRN process, along with her comprehensive understanding of RN License law, eventually led her to partner with Goyette in ownership of RN Guardian and she is now the CEO.
