...tegen mij een klacht hebben ingediend bij de balie... Explanation: lijkt me zowat de enige mogelijkheid te zijn, als je het kort wilt houden. Gegeven je context (een advocaat die dit zegt) zou iedereen moeten begrijpen wat wordt bedoeld. Voldoende referenties via google.com. HTH |

hebben een klacht gedeponeren bij de advocatenorde Explanation: The American Bar Association is een overkoepelende organisatie van alle 'bars' waar de advocaten in elke staat bij aangesloten zijn, en dat is dus niet de balie! Zie als volgt: This information will tell you about how the Virginia State Bar deals with complaints about lawyers, and how to make a complaint. The Virginia State Bar is genuinely concerned with your complaint. It will receive our full attention and be resolved as quickly as possible. We appreciate your concerns and value your assistance in our regulation and discipline of all lawyers in Virginia. Besides the staff of the Virginia State Bar, the disciplinary system involves lawyers and members of the public who volunteer their time to serve the public interest and preserve the integrity of the legal system. CONTENTS How are lawyers disciplined? Should you file a complaint? What the complaint process cannot do How to file a complaint Download a Complaint Form (PDF File) What happens after you file a complaint Confidentiality How complaints about lawyers are handled (chart) * This document is in Adobe Portable Document Format (.pdf).

How are lawyers disciplined? All lawyers who practice law in Virginia must be members of the Virginia State Bar. Lawyers must follow certain ethics rules called the Virginia Rules of Professional Conduct. The Bar enforces those ethics rules and disciplines lawyers who violate them. The Bar receives complaints from the public, judges and other lawyers about conduct that might violate ethics rules. The Office of Bar Counsel reviews all the complaints it receives to determine whether a lawyer may have violated one or more Rules. If a Rule might have been violated, the Bar investigates the situation. If a lawyer is found to have violated an ethics rule, one of the following levels of discipline may be imposed: He or she could receive a reprimand, which means the lawyer is told he has broken a rule, and a notation is made on the attorney¹s Bar record; or the lawyer¹s license to practice law could be suspended for up to 5 years, during which time the lawyer cannot practice law; or the lawyer¹s license could be revoked, which means the attorney is disbarred from the practice of law. Should you file a complaint? Charges that a lawyer has acted unethically are serious. A complaint should not be made lightly or to try to gain an advantage in your dealings with a lawyer. Also, filing a Bar complaint should not take the place of communicating with the lawyer to attempt to resolve differences. As your problem might be the result of some misunderstanding or breakdown in communication with your lawyer, the problem may be solved by a frank talk. Tell your lawyer why you are dissatisfied, and ask for a full explanation of what is bothering you. If you believe that you have made a sincere effort to solve your problem, but you still feel that the lawyer should be disciplined for his or her conduct, you may file a complaint. If the lawyer is found guilty of breaking an ethics rule, the Bar will discipline him or her. However, the disciplinary process will NOT serve to: recover money damages; make the lawyer take action you wish him or her to take; provide legal advice; offer other relief or assistance; or substitute for other civil or criminal remedies etc.etc. Reference: http://www.vsb.org/complain.html |
