"Charge of dishonesty" is not a specific legal category of crimes or offenses, so there is no bright-line or always correct answer. In terms of general usage or understanding of that term, a charge of dishonesty would involve fraud (or lying), misrepresentations, or misidentification. A charge not based on lying or claiming to be someone whom you were not should not be a charge of dishonesty.

Although AttorneyPages.com has verified the attorney was admitted to practice law in at least one jurisdiction, he or she may not be authorized to practice law in the jurisdiction referred to in the question, nor is he or she necessarily experienced in the area of the law involved.
