Attorney Disciplinary Proceedings

WI Supreme Court

Case Name: Office of Lawyer Regulation v. Wendy Allison Nora

Case No.: 2018 WI 23

Focus: Attorney Disciplinary Proceedings

Attorney Wendy Alison Nora appeals from the report of the referee, Attorney Lisa C. Goldman, who found that Attorney Nora had committed four violations of the Rules of Professional Conduct for Attorneys and recommended that Attorney Nora’s license to practice law in Wisconsin be suspended for one year.

Having heard oral argument and having fully reviewed this matter, we conclude that the referee’s factual findings are not clearly erroneous and that those findings support the legal conclusion that Attorney Nora committed the four counts of professional misconduct alleged in the Office of Lawyer Regulation’s (OLR) amended complaint. We further determine that the serious nature of Attorney Nora’s misconduct and her continued refusal to acknowledge her improper use of the judicial system requires a one-year suspension of her license to practice law in this state.
