Experience
Professional misconduct
This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2016.
Reciprocal - Reprimand issued in MO, 2016
updated on 11/11/2017This means that the attorney's misconduct in another state, or jurisdiction, also violated the rules for practicing law in Missouri.
James’s comment:
“The reciprocal reprimand was for the same events as the Indiana discipline.”
Suspension issued in IN, 2016
updated on 11/11/2017This means the 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.
James’s comment:
“This discipline involved an electronic message sent to an unrepresented husband in a divorce involving domestic violence. I am willing to answer any questions I am ethically allowed to answer during the initial consult if you feel you need to know more.”
Suspension issued in IN, 2016
updated on 03/19/2021This means the 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.
