Censure means the attorney did something wrong but may still practice law. Typically in this case the lawyer's poor behavior is exposed to the public in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.

Relationship: Worked for lawyer
I endorse this lawyer. Joel is an excellent attorney who is not afraid to tackle the tough cases. I have worked with Joel on many cases that other lawyers would not accept, and I have seen him achieve very good results for his clients. Joel is a zealous advocate for his clients, and is fearless in the court room. In addition to being a great advocate, Joel is one of the most accessible attorneys that I have ever worked with. Evenings and weekend work are a regular part of Joel's work schedule. He answers his calls and emails, and offers common sense solutions to difficult questions. For those reasons and more, Joel has been a successful practitioner in Chicago and the surrounding counties for decades.
