Disciplinary Complaint Investigations2:00 – 3:10

We will hear from three attorneys who volunteer as investigators for local and statewide ethics and grievance committees.  They will describe the steps involved once they receive an assignment, some of their more memorable investigations and tips for advising your client or responding to your own inquiry.  Ruth will discuss evidentiary issues related to investigations from the perspective of a member of the Kansas Supreme Court’s Board for Discipline of Attorneys.
