Can I sue the lawyer who sent me a bogus subpoena? -

If i had proven that a lawyer had sent me a bogus subpoena, can I countersue?

Before suing the lawyer who served you the subpoena, make sure you contact a lawyer to review the document. The document you received may be something other than a subpoena (i.e., a summons). Generally, subpoenas are issued by courts in the area where you live. If the subpoena in question is not properly prepared, you should discuss your legal options with a qualified attorney. Good luck...

yep, you can. not only can u sue him, you can also have him debarred, if u can prove that he sent the subpoena with a malicious intent (i.e. not in good faith ). get hold of a lawyer and ask him about it, he ll guide you,

Yes, u can because that is just like perjury. Giving false documents is against the law.

may be possible but i would have a good lawyer deal with it to be safe and not get over your head.....if this lawyer is tricky you might bite off more than you can chew.......

Report the event to the local bar association. The lawyer could lose his license.

thats malpractice and they could get disbared in australia, you might have to look up your local laws and make sure.

I am not sure if you can countersue, but what I would do is report him to the BAR association.

y not.

If it s true he s been engaging in such practices, you can do better than that and have his License revoked. That s why Lawyers have to pass a Bar Exam so they can practice law in each state.

Sounds like he should be brought up review/ethics..your state bar.

Send him a BOGUS letter that you are going to sue him. put it on a real peice of letter head and have a friend sign it like they are the attorney....
