Legal Question in Legal Ethics in Michigan
When is attorney conduct considered harassment?
I have received multiple threats from my former
husbands lawyer regarding ''taking the necessary legal
action'' in the event that I don't accomodate my former
husbands ever so often changing demands regarding
the settlement terms. Numerous
My former spouse is on felony probation as a result of
spousal abuse, and is
prohibited from making contact with me directly or third
party. He writes letters and his lawyer attempts to
adjust the verbarge to create the illusion that she wrote
them. Recently I received a letter stating very clearly the
lawyer is writing at the request of my former spouse. It
containsnon violent threats and spews hatred. It goes
way beyond necessary financial issues.
How is harassment defined in regard to attorney
contact?

If it is impermissible, file a grievance with the Attorney Grievance Commission. However, I would suggest that you tell me exactly what was said that you find objectionable. I'll tell you if it is grievable. Bill Stern
