Hearings & Outcomes
The Law Society of Alberta serves the public interest by promoting and ensuring high standards of ethics and competence on the part of all those seeking admission to and practicing law in Alberta.
To do so, the Law Society of Alberta sets and enforces standards of conduct through a clear and comprehensive Code of Conduct, and a timely, fair and transparent discipline process.
As the regulatory body of Alberta lawyers, the Law Society of Alberta is authorized under the Legal Profession Act to conduct hearings once citations are laid, and to communicate information about the outcomes of hearings.
The Upcoming Hearings lists hearings that are scheduled to be heard. It includes the specific citations laid against each lawyer.
The Past Hearings lists the hearings (including the corresponding citations) that have been held but only those for which a Hearing Report has not yet been issued.
The Law Society of Alberta posts in this section Notices to the Profession, Hearing Reports regarding suspensions, disbarments, and other disciplinary action.
If members of the public or the legal profession seek lawyer or custodian information, please use Lawyer Directory first. If you seek more specific information, please submit a report request.
