“[Charlton] said if his license to practice law is reinstated he will not provide legal services to any of his various businesses. He said the reason he wants his license reinstated is so he can be ‘of counsel’ with his son’s law firm providing mentoring and assistance to the various attorneys in the firm. He said he has no desire to start his own law practice and would like an opportunity to handle cases on a pro bono basis.
“After a review of the record we conclude that Earl A. Charlton has established by clear, satisfactory, and convincing evidence that he has satisfied all the criteria for reinstatement.
Accordingly, we adopt the referee’s findings of fact and conclusions of law and we agree with the referee’s recommendation that Mr. Charlton’s license to practice law in Wisconsin be reinstated.”
