Legal Question in Civil Rights Law in District of Columbia

Ethical conduct

What should one do when they

retain an attorney to work for

them in defending their civil rights

in the work force, and what happens is just the opposite? Should one report this unethical

conduct to the American Bar Assoc.

to have them investigate the situation? My understanding is that when one retains an attorney

to fight for them that they will do so

without holding back any secrets

or conversations that he/she had

with the employees supervisors or

their HR, or EEOC Office? I have

friends who are attorney's and they

suggest that I report the incident to

the American Bar Assoc. and ask

them to investigate. What do many of the attorney's who respond these questions feel or

think about my question? I would

appreciate hearing from you on

this topic. Thank you.

Re: Ethical conduct

I think that general allegations such as the one made here need many more relevant specifics as to the incident alleged before any credible opinion might (or should)be offered.
