On Thursday, October 2, 2025, the New Jersey Supreme Court reprimanded attorney Jay Lowell Juckett for professional misconduct. The ruling stems from a decision by the Disciplinary Review Board (DRB 24-284).
The case is entitled “In the Matter of Jay Lowell Juckett,” with case number 090725.
Juckett has been under temporary suspension from practicing law since January 29, 2024. The reprimand is based on Juckett’s violation of multiple Rules of Professional Conduct (RPC). Specifically, the court found Juckett in violation of RPC 8.1(b) for failing to comply with Rule 1:20-20, which governs the conduct of suspended attorneys, and for failing to cooperate with disciplinary authorities in two separate instances. Additionally, he was found to have violated RPC 8.4(d) for engaging in conduct prejudicial to the administration of justice.
The Supreme Court’s order, signed by Chief Justice Stuart Rabner, mandates that Juckett remain suspended from the practice of law, in accordance with the previous order issued on January 29, 2024. The court further directed that the complete record of the disciplinary proceedings be permanently included in Juckett’s file as an attorney at law in the state.
In addition to the reprimand and continued suspension, Juckett is required to reimburse the Disciplinary Oversight Committee for the administrative costs and actual expenses incurred during the prosecution of the case, as stipulated in Rule 1:20-17.
According to Avvo, Mr. Juckett is a general practice lawyer in Allenhurst, NJ. He acquired his law license in New Jersey in 1987.
