Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2014.

Probation issued in AZ, 2014

updated on 04/04/2018

Probation means an attorney did something wrong but may still practice law. The State monitors the lawyer's activities for a period of time in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.

Thomas’s comment:

“The suspension was unrelated to the practice of law. Suspension resulted from self reporting DUI violations. The lawyer was reinstated by the Arizona Supreme Court to active practice.”

Suspension followed by probation issued in IL, 2008

updated on 04/04/2018

This type of suspension means an attorney lost his or her license to practice law for a period of time. When the attorney returns to practice the State monitors the his or her activities for a period of time.

Thomas’s comment:

“Illinois was informed of AZ suspension due to DUI violation in 2004, Illinois did reciprocal discipline automatically. The lawyer no longer practices in Illinois, since 1993, so has not requested they update the record. No client complaints ever from practicing in Illinois.”

Suspension issued in AZ, 2007

updated on 04/04/2018

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.

Thomas’s comment:

“The suspension was unrelated to the practice of law. Suspension in 2007 resulted from self reporting 2006 DUI conviction. The lawyer was reinstated by the Arizona Supreme Court to active practice.”
