This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2026.

Suspension issued in TX, 2026

updated on 03/11/2026

Suspension means an attorney lost his or her license to practice law for a period of time. The attorney typically returns to practicing law when the suspension expires.

Reciprocal - Discipline issued in TN, 2025

updated on 12/24/2025

This means that the attorney's misconduct in another state, or jurisdiction, also violated the rules for practicing law in Tennessee.

Reprimand issued in CT, 2025

updated on 05/09/2025

A reprimand is an order from the Statewide Grievance Committee after it has found that an attorney has engaged in ethical misconduct. If an attorney receives more than 3 reprimands in 5 years, a presentment must be filed against the attorney so the Superior Court can decide if more serious discipline should be ordered.
