WI Supreme Court

Case Name: Office of Lawyer Regulation v. Robert C. Menard

Case No.: 2020 WI 50

Focus: Attorney Disciplinary Hearing

Attorney Robert C. Menard has appealed a referee’s recommendation that his license to practice law in Wisconsin be revoked; that he be ordered to make restitution to a number of clients; and that he be ordered to pay the full costs of this proceeding, which are $18,191.42 as of October 25, 2019. Attorney Menard stipulated to 30 counts of misconduct and the only disputed issue left for the referee to decide was the appropriate sanction. Similarly, the only issue raised on appeal is what is reasonable and appropriate discipline for the misconduct in this case. We agree with the referee that revocation is the appropriate sanction.
