Following a recent disciplinary ruling against attorney Brian Kent by the Pennsylvania Disciplinary Board, a spotlight has been cast on the conduct of several attorneys involved in litigation against the Church of Scientology, raising concerns about the integrity of these legal battles.

A source acquainted with the case has brought forth allegations, suggesting a pattern of misconduct among lawyers linked to these high-profile lawsuits. Notably, attorney Graham Berry, based in Los Angeles and formerly co-counsel with Kent, has been labeled a vexatious litigant by the Judicial Council of California. This designation severely limits his ability to initiate legal actions without prior court approval. Berry's past also includes allegations of inappropriate behavior towards clients.

Another lawyer, Michael Dolce, previously collaborated with legal scholar Marci Hamilton and Brian Kent. Dolce's legal career ended abruptly in 2023 when he was sentenced to four years in federal prison and 15 years supervised release after a guilty plea for possessing child pornography. The U.S. Department of Justice reported that Dolce had compiled a significant collection of illegal material.

Additionally, Neil Glazer, who reportedly filed the initial complaint against Kent, has faced a reprimand after an incident involving alcohol and inappropriate client interactions. According to sources, Glazer has since disassociated from his previous law firm and has ceased his involvement in litigation against Scientology.

These revelations pose significant questions about the potential impact of attorney misconduct on the credibility and outcomes of the lawsuits against Scientology. Critics argue that justice in these cases could be undermined by the behavior of the legal representatives involved.

The individual who disclosed these concerns stated, "I have no personal stake in this matter," emphasizing their motivation stems from a personal encounter with attorney negligence. "I’ve made it a point to research and expose problematic behavior within the legal profession."

As the public interest in the accountability of legal teams representing clients against major institutions increases, these issues highlight the crucial need for ethical conduct among lawyers. Attempts to contact attorneys Berry and Glazer for comments were not successful at the time of publication.
