The State Bar of California

L S

I cannot agree more with Kayleigh. The reason why so many attorneys are committing billing fraud and insanely overcharge clients is that the agency that regulates them allows and even enables them to do so! It’s nearly impossible to talk to a live person when you call the State Bar of California. Intake and investigation staff are all licensed attorneys. Arbitrators are licensed attorneys too, so of course the agency is always, always, always siding with corrupt attorneys. That’s why you need to stay away from attorneys who have “disciplinary records.” It’s extremely difficult to get to the point where an attorney will be reprimanded or disciplined. Therefore, if any lawyer is “disciplined,” then this attorney must have done really horrible things to their clients. The so-called State Bar of California is like there’s a sporting contest but both the athlete and the judge are the SAME person. Can you expect fairness in this case? If the State Bar of California fails you, don’t be discouraged. You can try contacting the California Consumer Affairs or California Department of Justice. After all, we “consume” legal services so shouldn’t these malpractices be dealt with by agencies that claim to protect “consumers?”

I had to do with Arianna Lee. She closed my complain just in easy,lazy way. I don't think further investigation in the right way were done on my complain. There is no sense to follow a complain at all.

Someone needs to check Courtney Gengler.. she is an unthical dishonest current attorney.. It seems the state bar does little to enforce proper behavior of Sutter county attorney's.. This whole system here is current and Courtney is the worst..

Unfortunately, the State Bar is a self regulating group. They allow ROGUE attorneys loose in or community and we become their prey. I had a horrible experience with one of these attorneys and reported him to the State Bar. They opened an investigation & sat on it for over 3 years until I received notice that I had to sue the attorney before they would go any further. I am appealing, but have zero confidence in this joke of an organization that claims to protect the public.
