I recently wrote to the Board of Directors of my city's
Chamber of Commerce on an issue involving a contractual
dispute between me and a local business. I received no
official response from the Chamber but did receive a call
and letter from the local business's attorney threatening a
lawsuit. The attorney who is representing the business is
one of the Board of Directors I originally wrote to. This
seems to me to be a conflict of interest. Can anyone tell
me if this is indeed an ethics violation and what I should
do about it?

Incidentally, the local business owner I'm in dispute with
is the President of the Chamber.
