Eligible: the matter alleges Rules of Professional Conduct breaches. Forum: the regional Grievance Committee for the relevant judicial district (routed by the attorney's location).
Eligible ✓
Routed out automatically if it were really a fee dispute (→ fee-dispute-resolution program), a request to overturn a ruling (→ not this forum), or a malpractice / money-damages claim (→ separate counsel).
Attorney involvement — optional. A grievance is reporting an attorney's conduct, so a named attorney is not required to proceed (lower UPL exposure than a court petition). You can prepare and submit on your own; adding an attorney to review first is offered and recommended.
Optional
Strength & readiness — by alleged violation
An objective read of how well-supported each alleged Rules-of-Professional-Conduct violation is, from the completeness and quality of the record — with what to obtain next. This organizes the complaint for your attorney; it does not judge the merits or whether the committee will act.
Documentation preparation only — not legal advice. JusticeX screens forum/eligibility objectively, assembles the complaint, maps evidence to the rules, and flags completeness. It does not interpret the rules, predict the committee's decision, or advise whether to file. Your attorney decides; every output is a draft for attorney review.

Draft — review before you fileReady to review. Anyone may file a grievance — no attorney or special standing required. Your complaint, chronology, and indexed appendices are assembled; you can submit them yourself, or (recommended) have an attorney review first. JusticeX does not submit, and does not advise whether to.
Optional: send to an attorney
