Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2002.

Public Reprimand issued in FL, 2002

updated on 06/26/2012

Public reprimand means the attorney did something wrong but may still practice law. The Bar warns the lawyer in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior. Details of the infraction are made part of the public record.

David’s comment:

“I WITHHELD DELIVERY OF DEED TO A CLIENT WHO UNJUSTIFIABLY REFUSED TO PAY ME A SUM LESS THAN $100 FOR COURT COSTS CLEARLY DUE UNDER A WRITTEN FEE AGREEMENT. I DID VOLUNTARILY RELEASE THE DEED AFTER THE CLIENT RETAINED OTHER COUNSEL. HOWEVER, THE FLORIDA BAR TOOK THE POSITION THAT I WAS NOT ENTITLED TO WITHHOLD THE DEED BECAUSE MY WRITTEN FEE AGREEMENT WITH THE CLIENT DID EXPRESSLY STATE THAT I HAD THE RIGHT TO TO A LIEN ON THE DOCUMENT OBTAINED IN THE COURSE OF MY REPRESENTATION OF THE CLIENT.”
