   • I just received a letter from the Office of the Chief Disciplinary Counsel telling me that I have to respond to a grievance that was included with the State Bar’s letter?
   • That grievance is frivolous. What if I don’t respond? A common error for lawyers who receive a grievance complaint notice is not responding to the State Bar at all.
   • Should I hire an attorney to represent me in the grievance system? As with any legal matter, it is best to receive professional advice from a lawyer who practices in the area of legal ethics and disciplinary procedures.
