The filing of a complaint with the Disciplinary Board costs nothing. Annual assessments are paid by every practicing lawyer in Rhode Island to help finance the operation of the attorney disciplinary system. It is important to remember that although your attorney may be guilty of misconduct, the vast majority of people are well satisfied with the performance and professionalism of their attorneys.
