Professional Responsibility – suspension
Attorney had been the subject of prior discipline and license is currently suspended. The current complaint alleges four separate counts of misconduct — failure to use proper alternative fee placement procedures in depositing client’s retainer in his business account; accepting a fee for a representation he did not complete, which was then an unreasonable fee; failing to refund unearned fees; and failing to cooperate in his investigation. Attorney defaulted and the referee found that the misconduct occurred. The court adopted the referee’s recommendations and suspended attorney’s license for 60 days, ordered that he pay restitution of $750 to his client and assessed costs.
