Unfortunately, there is no statewide or national database which reports whether an attorney has had a legal malpractice claim filed against him/her. However, if the attorney has been disciplined by the Ohio Supreme Court for unethical behavior, that is reported and available to the public by going to the web address below and entering the attorney’s information.

Best of luck to you.
