Wisconsin Supreme Court
Civil
Professional Responsibility — revocation
Where attorney William J. Grogan committed 33 acts of misconduct, revocation is appropriate.
“Based upon our review of the record, we approve and adopt the referee’s findings of fact and conclusions of law. We determine that the seriousness of Attorney Grogan’s misconduct demonstrates that his law license must be revoked to protect the public, courts, and legal system from the repetition of the misconduct; to impress upon Attorney Grogan the seriousness of his misconduct; and to deter other attorneys from engaging in similar misconduct. We also agree with and adopt the referee’s recommendation that Attorney Grogan be ordered to pay restitution and costs as described above.”
Per Curiam.
Attorneys: For Appellant: St. Ores, Sheryl A., Madison; For Respondent: Grogan, William J., Appleton
