Worst Attorney I’ve Encountered in 45 Years

He represented me in a business lawsuit in which he displayed terrible communication, utter lack of knowledge, no courtroom skills, and a focus on not saying anything that might annoy the judge. He had his Kansas law license suspended in November 2020, and his Missouri license suspect after that. He ...is only good at promptly sending outrageous bills. Avoid at all costs.

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2021.

Reciprocal - Suspension issued in MO, 2021

updated on 01/12/2023

This means that the attorney's misconduct in another state, or jurisdiction, also violated the rules for practicing law in Missouri.

Suspension Partially Stayed Placed on Probation issued in KS, 2020

updated on 05/09/2022

Suspension partially stayed means the attorney lost his or her license to practice law for a period of time. When the attorney returns to practice, he or she will be on probation, meaning the State monitors the attorney's activities for a period of time in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.

Mark’s comment:

“Sanctioned regarding a business transaction in 2004 involving joint representation.”
