VSB Complaint
Send in this form if you have concerns about a lawyer’s conduct. Your complaint might result in discipline to the lawyer. If you are seeking other remedies against the lawyer, you may need to seek legal advice from a lawyer in private practice. Also, the bar may require your further involvement in an investigation by asking you to be interviewed by a bar investigator and/or to participate at a hearing.
Please DO NOT send original documents to the Virginia State Bar. Preserve all original documents until your complaint has been resolved. In addition, please redact personally identifying information such as Social Security numbers, date of birth, driver’s license numbers, etc. All documents will be destroyed in keeping with the bar’s records and destruction policies.
