Disbarment issued in CA, 2022

updated on 02/03/2023

Disbarment is the most serious penalty for a lawyer. If this attorney is currently practicing law, you should contact the California State Bar to understand the reasons for disbarment.

Discipline with Actual Suspension issued in CA, 2012

This sanction 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.

Peter’s comment:

“These clients gave money for a loan modification to a business I used to work for in west covina but under my name. I never met the clients or agreed to represent them. I settled anyway with state bar.”
