Reporting misconduct
The primary mission of the Barreau du Québec is to oversee how lawyers practice law to ensure the protection of people using their services. The Barreau oversees the professional discipline of its members and their adherence to ethical standards and assesses their competence and those aspiring to join its ranks. You can contact the Barreau anytime if you have concerns about a lawyer’s conduct.

Is a person who calls himself a lawyer duly registered on the Tableau de l'Ordre? Is her right to practice subject to a suspension or restrictions that prevent her from providing you with the services she claims to offer? The answers to these questions are public. You will find them here.
