Private reproval, public disclosure issued in CA, 1991
updated on 12/02/2018Private reproval, public disclosure means the attorney did something wrong but may still practice law. The Bar warns the lawyer in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.

Not sure why the state bar or Avvo consider it important. It DID NOT involve a client or the practice of law.”
