This section lists all complaints that have been referred to the Discipline Committee for a public hearing. The Discipline Committee is governed by Part 10 Discipline and Competence of the Law Society Act, 1996.
- Current cases are listed in the top part of the page. This includes hearings that are ongoing or that have concluded within the last 18 months.
- All public hearings past and present are listed in the second half of the page.
- For information about which cases are public and which are not, please read our Publication Policies regarding disciplinary matters.
- The information listed on this page does not include the lawyer's status or contact details. If you want to find out about a lawyer's status or address, please consult our Lawyer Search. The directory will tell you if the lawyer has a practice restriction or limited practice, even if the reason why is not public.
FORMAT CHANGES: as of March 28, 2014, all cases are now listed in alphabetical order according to the lawyer's family name. In addition, this page is now updated as required. It is no longer updated only on the first business day of the month.
