Christoff, secretary Office of Attorney Services In addition to directing the overall operation of the division, the Office of Attorney Services provides support to five Court-appointed boards and two task forces appointed by the Chief Justice. These entities assist the Court in executing its constitutionally mandated responsibility for regulating the practice of law. During 2006, the Office of Attorney Services finalized and presented to the Court proposed Ohio Rules of Professional Conduct to replace the Ohio Code of Professional Responsibility. The adoption of new rules on Aug. 1, 2006, was the conclusion of more than three years of work by the Task Force on Rules of Professional Conduct chaired by Judge Peggy Bryant (below). This milestone marked the first comprehensive review and revision to attorney ethics rules in Ohio since 1970. As part of this presentation, the staff of the Office of Attorney Services provided research, drafting and other assistance to the task force, as well as coordinated the publication and distribution of the new rules to Ohio lawyers and assisted in the efforts to educate lawyers and judges about the new rules.

Attorney Registration & CLE Section The Supreme Court’s Attorney Registration & CLE Section is responsible for registering attorneys in Ohio, as well as administering CLE and other specialization programs. In 2006, the section’s staff was responsible for developing and implementing the Court’s online portal allowing lawyers to report their CLE compliance electronically. To date, more than 2,000 attorneys have taken advantage of this Web tool to complete compliance. Staff also implemented a program in 2006 to collect unpaid sanctions for CLE noncompliance imposed since 1992. The section also began work with the Commission on Professionalism and the CLE commission to evaluate recommendations to revise the new lawyer training program. Revisions under consideration would allow more flexibility in complying with the new lawyer training requirements and could allow compliance to be satisfied through participation in a mentoring program approved and sponsored by the Supreme Court.
