ARDC

Practicing Illinois lawyers are required to register annually with the ARDC. Through the registration process, the ARDC maintains accurate records relating to all practicing lawyers in the State of Illinois. The ARDC provides courts and the public with access to information about individual lawyers, including business contact information, whether the lawyer is currently registered and authorized to practice law, whether the lawyer has been disciplined in the past, whether there are any pending formal complaints against the lawyer, and whether the lawyer reports having legal malpractice insurance coverage. As part of annual registration, lawyers pay fees to the ARDC, which are used to fund the ARDC's operations and which contribute to the support of the Lawyers' Assistance Program, the Lawyer's Trust Fund, the Illinois Supreme Court's Commission on Professionalism and the Client Protection Program Trust Fund... IARDC® provides online access to registration and discipline information..
