Professional misconduct
This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority.
Reprimand
issued in WA, 2013updated
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.
Tom’s comment: “I've been certified qualified to be a US Immigration Judge in 2012, 2013, 2014 & 2016 by the Executive Office for Immigration Review. The reprimand? I didn't withdraw soon enough from the client's deportation proceedings, so he filed a grievance. So I moved to withdraw. But the client changed his mind. So then I went on to WIN his DIFFICULT deportation case. Client then wished to withdraw his grievance but the Bar wouldn't let him. On 1/16/2014 my AVVO rating was 8.3”
