Helped me when I needed an advocate most.

Fintan Dooley helped me when I needed an advocate most. I was oppressed by a well heeled real estate developer who drilled a well and began to set up a pumping station on my front yard. The City purposefully misconstrued an easement to avoid ordering the developer to plug the well. I plugged the wel...l myself and faced the wrath of the Association of Well Drillers who, with the acquiescence of the Water Commission, attempted to fine me for plugging a well without a permit. Dooley sued and we resolved the case profitably. He defended me aggressively and we corrected the misconduct of the City and the Association of Well Drillers. He ended a trespass and stopped a team of unfaithful public servants from perpetuating an injustice. He fought for me. He does not give up. I am so thankful for his help. Paul

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2001.

Suspension issued in ND, 2001

updated on 02/04/2016

This 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.

Fintan’s comment:

“I served her zealously and loyally. She abandoned her civil rights claim . The funds I seized for her were always in a trust account. Over 25 years of confrontations with the ND Workers Compensation Bureau , I gathered enemies. Hebrews 12: 8. If you are not disciplined--and everyone undergoes discipline--then you are not legitimate, not true sons and daughters at all.”

Reprimand issued in ND, 1999

updated on 02/04/2016

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.

Fintan’s comment:

“I served zealously and faithfully in a case that greatly pained my client. I did not breach confidences.”
