Nearly 700 lawyers are currently under investigation for various malpractices, the Law Society of Zimbabwe (LSZ) has revealed.
LSZ corporate communications manager Richard Chidza told <a href="https://www.sundaymail.co.zw/700-lawyers-under-investigation">The Sunday Mail</a> that they have already deregistered 63 lawyers across the country, since the beginning of the year.
He said between 2017 and 2022, 60 lawyers were deregistered by the LSZ for bringing the profession into disrepute through their misconduct.
Some of the lawyers were disqualified from practising for misappropriating trust funds or failing to render legal services after clients had paid their fees.
Chidza revealed that the complaints lodged against legal practitioners have cumulatively risen to 698, with one “security case” dating back to 2016. He said:
<blockquote>
At the beginning of this year, the Law Society of Zimbabwe had 467 complaint cases that were at various levels of being dealt with, from the Secretariat, Council, through to the Disciplinary and Ethics Committee, and the Legal Practitioners Disciplinary Tribunal.
Since the beginning of the year, the LSZ has received 231 new complaints, bringing the total to 698.
Cumulatively, the Law Society of Zimbabwe has decisively dealt with 197 cases within the last eight months.
The total number of legal practitioners who have been deregistered stands at 63.
We have not classified these cases according to complaints categories, but most of them include clients alleging having paid for a service they have not received from our members.
There are also cases of charging beyond the prescribed rates and abuse of trust funds.

698 Lawyers Under Investigation By Law Society Of Zimbabwe

Harare lawyer Sifiso Mugadza has been barred from legal practice for three years by the Law Society of Zimbabwe (LSZ), reported <a href="https://www.herald.co.zw/lawyer-slapped-with-suspension-over-kickbacks/">The Herald</a>.
Mugadza pleaded guilty to unprofessional conduct when he appeared before the Legal Practitioners’ Disciplinary Tribunal, chaired by High Court Judge Justice David Mangota.
David Kanokanga and Sarah Moyo were the other members of the panel.
Mugadza’s law firm was placed under curatorship for the same three years so his other clients do not suffer from his enforced absence.
LSZ had sought the de-registration of Mugadza but imposed a lesser penalty after he admitted to the charges.
Allegations were that Mugadza practiced under Madanhi, Mugadza and Company Attorneys At Law, in Harare and the law firm was on a panel of law firms used by CBZ and its associated companies.
He would be allocated debt collection and conveyancing work by the bank.
Between July 2016 and October 2018 and on several occasions, Mugadza entered into an illicit deal with Noah Munaki, CBZ’s former manager in charge of recoveries, where the lawyer would pay him 15 to 20 percent of his earned fees.
The payments to Munaki were kickbacks for work allocated to Mugadza.
It was established that during that period a total of 32 payments amounting to US$434 698 were made to Munaki.
The payments were made from Mugadza’s trust account, business, or personal account into the bank account of Munaki’s wife, Coderius Matore.
Mugadza submitted a 10-page mitigation to move the tribunal “not to put his neck under the guillotine”.
In his remarks before sentencing the lawyer, Justice Mangota said his conduct undermined public confidence in the legal profession and his moral blameworthiness was very high. He said:
<blockquote>
The respondent (Mugadza) is suspended from practicing as a legal practitioner, notary public, and conveyancer for a period of three years.
</blockquote>
Mugadza’s law firm will be placed under curatorship for it to continue as a going concern.
The illicit deal between Munaki and Mugadza came to light in 2018 after the bank received an anonymous tip-off.
Munaki was found to be involved in underhand dealings with several of the law firms on the CBZ panel of legal services providers.
Mugadza’s firm was one of the firms involved.
The Law Society of Zimbabwe is responsible for representing and regulating how lawyers and law firms operate in Zimbabwe.
Its membership is drawn from all registered legal practitioners in Zimbabwe in private practice, commerce and civil service.
It is the duty of LSZ to ensure, as far as it is able, that its members measure up to the high standards required of them.

Harare Lawyer Barred For Three Years For Receiving Kickbacks

The Law Society of Zimbabwe (LSZ) has warned members of the public to be wary of lawyers who loiter at the magistrates’ court to tout legal work and solicit payments without offering receipts.
In a statement, LSZ Executive Secretary Edward Mapara the public should report such lawyers to the nearest police station as the practice is not allowed. Reads the statement:
<blockquote>
The Public is being warned to desist from giving instructions to any persons masquerading as lawyers at the Magistrates Court. Before engaging the lawyer, ensure the following;
a) That the person purporting to offer legal services is duly registered and licensed by the Law Society of Zimbabwe to offer such services. Proof of such licence can be in the form of a valid Practising Certificate for that year.
b) Should one want to verify whether the person purporting to offer legal services is indeed licenced, they can contact the Law Society and speak to the Regulation Department Harare (Joyce or Alice) on 0242-751000, 0242-779207-9, or Pride in Bulawayo on 02922-60861, 0292260843.
Should members of the public be approached by unregistered and unlicensed persons purporting to offer legal services, they should report them to the police post at the court or any nearest police station and such persons will be subjected to prosecution.
THE PUBLIC IS FURTHER WARNED TO DESIST FROM DEALING WITH ANY REGISTERED AND LICENSED LAWYERS WHO LOITER AT THE MAGISTRATES’ COURTS FOR PURPOSES OF SECURING LEGAL WORK (TOUTING) AND TAKING LEGAL FEES WITHOUT ISSUING A RECEIPT.
It is serious misconduct for any licensed lawyer to loiter at the courts for purposes of soliciting legal work.
Any licensed lawyer found to be touting at the courts will be subjected to disciplinary action by the Law Society of Zimbabwe.
PLEASE NOTE THAT THE LAW SOCIETY HAS THE DIRECTORY OF ALL LICENSED LEGAL PRACTITIONERS WHO ARE PERMITTED TO OFFER LEGAL SERVICES AND ANYONE WILLING TO VERIFY THE LICENSING STATUS OF A LAWYER IS AT LIBERTY TO DO SO THROUGH TELEPHONING THE LAW SOCIETY OF ZIMBABWE ABOVE OR EMAIL: joyce@lsz.co.zW; alice@lsz.co.zw or check our website www.lawsociety.org.zw
