Are you a lawyer and have a potential or pending disciplinary matter or ethics violation you need representation and assistance with defending?
Were you represented by an attorney and you feel there was malpractice?
Ethics and professional responsibility attorneys are experienced and knowledgeable in the many rules, laws and procedures involved with professional conduct.
These attorneys can represent other attorneys in defending actions against them, clients seeking redress for harm potentially due to professional malpractice, or both.
Attorneys representing attorneys can assist with such matters as: providing advice on an attorney’s or law firm’s planned actions and whether they comply with the rules; representation in bar admission or ethical violation proceedings; and claims by clients for allegations of fiduciary duty violations or malpractice.
Attorneys representing individuals who may have a claim against an attorney can stem from a number of issues arising from the attorney-client relationship.
These can involve issues such as commingling of funds, where an attorney may have mingled funds between their client and themselves.
Alternatively, it could involve issues of breach of confidentiality or other fiduciary obligations.
