What is Administrative Law

Administrative law governs the actions, rules, and regulations of government agencies at the local, state, and federal levels. It ensures that these agencies act within their legal bounds and that individuals and businesses have ways to challenge or seek clarification on agency decisions. For example, administrative law covers areas like licensing, regulatory compliance, and enforcement actions across sectors such as healthcare, education, and environmental protection.

In North Carolina, the North Carolina Bar Association’s Administrative Law Section serves attorneys who represent and practice before state and local regulatory boards, commissions, and the Office of Administrative Hearings. By providing a framework for how agencies create and enforce rules, administrative law helps maintain accountability and transparency in government actions, protecting the rights of citizens and organizations alike.
