Chukwuma Emele, called to the Bar by Lincoln's Inn in March 2010, was found by a 5-person Disciplinary Tribunal (decision 14 July 2017) to have engaged in dishonest or otherwise discreditable pre-Call conduct in running Credo Law Office, as previously found by the Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal (judgment 25 April 2012), which he failed to fairly disclose to the Benchers. He falsely declared in his 1 February 2010 Admission Declaration that he was unaware of any matter calling his fitness into question. He had also been convicted of misconduct by the SDT under an Approved Regulator. He was disbarred.
