Overview

Every criminal defense attorney should understand the Texas disciplinary process before a grievance lands on their desk — this CLE covers the full lifecycle of a complaint, from how the Office of the Chief Disciplinary Counsel classifies and investigates it to the key decisions a respondent faces along the way. You’ll learn the common missteps that escalate a grievance and how to respond effectively, so you’re ready to protect your license the moment one arrives.
