#AB2039

Graphic showing the California State Capitol with text reading: “Zbur Bill Passes Assembly Committee on Judiciary.” It highlights AB 2039 on attorney accountability and whistleblower protections, including disbarment for felony capping, protections against retaliation, and transparency in attorney-client loans. A photo of Assemblymember Rick Chavez Zbur appears on the right, with his title and logo at the bottom.

Proud to share that #AB2039 — my bill to strengthen consequences for attorneys who illegally pay for clients or referrals (known as "capping”) — passed the Assembly Judiciary Committee today.

Attorneys should protect clients, not exploit them.
