You can check an attorney's discipline history

Before you retain an attorney, you can check the attorney's discipline record on the State Bar's website. This can be important. My wife is working on a case in which the client's previous attorney did a very poor job representing the client. She is now trying to salvage the case.

The previous attorney had a history of discipline by the California State Bar and was disbarred in Nevada at the time he was filing this case in California. He is now being prosecuted by California State Bar.
