Experience
Professional misconduct
This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2009.
Suspension issued in TN, 2009
updated on 09/19/2017Suspended 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.
David’s comment:
“This suspension was actually in 2005 but was not set until 2009. It involved a client who lied to me and the police. Rather than face a worse punishment, I accepted a suspension.”
