Experience

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2012.

Public Reprimand issued in MS, 2012

updated on 02/07/2013

This means the attorney did something wrong, but the Bar did not suspend the lawyer. Typically in this case the lawyer's poor behavior is exposed to the public in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
