Professional misconduct
This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2022.
Stayed Suspension; Probation issued in MN, 2022
updated on 12/02/2022Stayed suspension/probation means an attorney did something wrong but may still practice law. The suspension is placed on hold (and ultimately removed) if the attorney complies with certain requirements. The State also monitors the lawyer's activities for a period of time in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
