Dilemma regarding legal representation at final hearing...

Hi,
I am due a final hearing in the family court with an abusive ex next year..
I have just been told who my Barrister will be.
(Changing some details as not to be outing)... having googled them, they were suspended for 3 months for "something" (can't say as it's outing)
I am legally aided and this is a VERY experienced Barrister, my Solicitor has advised me they are very good and they are used all the time and they leave no stone unturned,
AIBU to use him despite the fact if you google them information regarding his charges come up? or would you ask for another?
I have had very Junior Barristers within the confines of legal aid and can see that this one is very experienced.
Advice?

I would be inclined to use him. Whatever he was suspended for was probably relatively minor if it's only a 3 month suspension.
