State Bar No: 275582

Name: Gregory, Nicholas James

No Complaints To Report
Please note that a complaint is defined as "a communication alleging misconduct by a State Bar member sufficient to warrant an investigation that may
result in discipline of the member if allegations are proved." (Rules Proc. of State Bar, rule 5.4(13) .) Therefore, allegations closed with the
determination that the matter does not warrant investigation or allegations pending review to determine if they warrant investigation, are not included in
Complaint History Reports.
We are unable to provide copies of the actual complaint(s) as such communications to the State Bar of California are privileged pursuant to California
Business and Professions Code, section 6094(a).
This report identifies complaints and allegations received by the State Bar and not findings by the State Bar Court. Therefore, even where this report
indicates the disposition of "Discipline," the report does not identify the findings supporting that discipline, which may differ substantially from the
allegations received by the State Bar. Please consult the specific discipline documents to learn what findings of misconduct were made by the court. In
most cases, such documents may be found on the public profile page for the attorney under Attorney Search at www.calbar.ca.gov.
