Unethical Lawyer Complaint Process
Summary
Filing a complaint against an unethical lawyer in Illinois involves contacting the Attorney Registration and Disciplinary Commission (ARDC). Gather evidence of the unethical behavior, complete a complaint form from the ARDC website, and submit it via mail, fax, or online. If your lawyer did not show up in court, this could be a violation of professional conduct. Document all communications and records related to your case, and formally request your lawyer to provide copies of any lost texts or emails. If your lawyer lied about contacting a therapist or withheld important documents, this could be considered malpractice or professional misconduct. A Guardian ad Litem (GAL) must report any suspicions of child abuse to DCFS. If you were not given written notice about your case, this could be a violation of due process.Full Conversation
