Unprofessional kolkata advocate-complaint

(Querist) 20 July 2017 This query is : Resolved 
Dear Experts Team, This is in regards to an ordeal of incidents with the respective advocate with whom we had started registering our LLP in Kolkata. The advocate is working in a firm (his own or not we are not sure). He did the registration for our LLP; creating partnership deed, DSC,MCA reg, and creation of PAN card. For the PAN card he has done a blunder where he has selected the constitution for our company as Company whereas he should have done that as Firm for LLP. We came to know about this issue when we tried to apply for the GST online from GST site. The real game, which is in the form of illegal practice of law and unprofessional behavior to the core which he started with us, after we made him realize what is the severity of the mistake he has made. Initially he went on telling us that all will be done and there is no issue and for the last 1 month he has been bluffing and lying to us and did nothing to correct the mistake of the PAN that he and his company has done the mistake about. On top of working towards the solution he is lying each and everyday over emails, phone calls and sms that he has done the application for PAN surrender. When we ask him for the acknowledgement number, he has no answer to that on the contrary he started shouting and abusing. The point is, he has known that we are aware of his deed that he has done and the illegal work he has accomplished by charging us money. And that is the reason he is avoiding our communications and degraded to abusive levels when we have asked for the receipt/acknowledgment of the application at IT office. This is a way for an educated advocate to behave with business houses or any individual? That is such a sad state of affair then. I want to lodge this complaint with the right authority and escalate this matter against people like these. Please guide.

Thanks,
Manojit.

Consult a local lawyer with all records and documents for proper appreciation of facts, guidance and proceeding for such a long story.

The mistake has to be rectified first.

Have services of some other lawyer expert in the field and get it rectified.

You have not noticed the error for years.

Lawyer has no authority to misbehave, lodge complaint with the state Bar council.
Kumar Doab (Expert) 22 July 2017
First of all check if he/she is an advocate or not an advocate....................is an employee or owner..............

Lodge complaint thereafter....................with owners and/or State Bar Council....

Thank You Experts. We noticed it when we had to do the GST. Mine is a new company which has been formed just an year back. Yes, we initiated the rectification matter and hopefully we will get that done from some other company. This person is an advocate and I am assuming he is one of the partners of that firm. We will dig into the matter. And will also check with another local lawyer. Any idea how much it should cost to lodge the complaint formally??
