Professional Responsibility — reinstatement

Where attorney Naomi E. Soldon has complied with the conditions for reinstatement, reinstatement is granted.

“This court has carefully evaluated whether Attorney Soldon has indeed met the requirements for the reinstatement of her license to practice law in Wisconsin, and we conclude that she has. Attorney Soldon has acknowledged the wrongfulness of her conduct, voluntarily entered into a rehabilitation program, and by all accounts has successfully undergone treatment for her addictions. We agree with the referee that Attorney Soldon has met her burden of proof with respect to all elements needed to justify her reinstatement. We agree with the referee that, as a condition of her reinstatement, Attorney Soldon should be required to provide the OLR with quarterly reports from Dr. Longo for a period of two years to confirm that she is maintaining her sobriety and continuing to abstain from gambling. We also agree with the referee’s recommendation that Attorney Soldon should pay the full costs of the proceeding, which are $2,680.59.”
