Disciplinary Counsel

Disciplinary Counsel is a legal professional responsible for overseeing and enforcing the ethical rules and standards among attorneys. They investigate complaints of misconduct, such as dishonesty or negligence, against lawyers and determine whether disciplinary action is warranted. Their role helps ensure the legal profession maintains integrity, accountability, and public trust. Disciplinary Counsel operates within a regulatory body or bar association, working to uphold professional standards and, when necessary, advocating for sanctions or corrective measures to address violations.
