Professional misconduct

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

Reprimand issued in MI, 2002

updated on 03/01/2011

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

R.’s comment:

“The incident that gave rise to the reprimand resulted from a legal assistant's insubordination and negligence. The incident was characterized as the negligent supervision of support staff.”

Suspension issued in MI, 2000

updated on 06/13/2012

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.

R.’s comment:

“The incident that gave rise to the suspension resulted from a failure to provide a client with a copy of the Michigan Court of Appeals opinion affirming the trial court. The client appeared at the office several years later upon his release from prison demanding that support staff immediately provide a copy of the Court's opinion. Support staff present in the office did not know the client or the facts surrounding the case and felt threatened in the former client's persence.”
