    Website for attorney grievance(s)
    Does anyone know of a website I could visit to see how many grievances have been filed against an attorney, or how frequently they were filed? I've been to the ABA website but it's like trying to find a needle in a haystack. Is that information that they'd post online?

    Some States allow grievances to be posted; others do not.

    Have you called the Wisconsin Bar and asked them?

    ... were you waiting for me to post? :)

    No, I haven't called. Maybe I should try that rather than waste everyone else's time... :D
