Lines 17-20 state: "In the few recorded episodes of disciplinary action apparently came from a dissatisfied client, not from fellow lawyers."
Answer choice (A) is the only action described that would cause a client to be dissatisfied and have a reason to bring an action against their lawyer. Thus, since since paragraph one explicitly states that this type of action was the only type of recorded episode, answer choice (A) is the correct answer.
Hope that helps! Please let us know if you have any other questions.
