Suspended Attorney Failed To Supervise Two Embezzling Paralegals

The South Carolina Supreme Court ordered a two-year suspension, effective as of the date of a previously-imposed interim suspension, of an attorney found to have engaged in misconduct in a number of matters.

Among the violations were his failure to properly supervise not one, but two, embezzling paralegals.

One of the paralegals was  the subject of a criminal case as a result; the attorney declined to press charges against the other. (Mike Frisch)
