Supreme Court of Wisconsin

Case Name: Office of Lawyer Regulation v. Richard W. Voss

Case No:2014AP2086-D

Practice Area: Disciplinary Proceeding

Attorney already on suspension submits stipulation listing several other violations. License is suspended for an additional period.

“In his report, the referee recommended that the court impose a 60-day license suspension, to run consecutive to Attorney Voss’s present suspension. The referee wrote that a six-month period of suspension following Attorney Voss’s 18-month suspension, as the OLR requested, was unnecessary to meet the goals of Wisconsin’s disciplinary system——especially since, in the referee’s view, Attorney Voss’s misconduct has “more to do with sloppy office supervision and inadequate staff and self-training than it has to do with intentional professional misconduct.”

License suspended 60 days.
