Attorney Vincent O’Brien of Chicago; lying slacker

The state of Illinois provided Vincent J. O’Brien with a law license in 1987 after he graduated from DePaul University Law School.

Disciplinary Counsel found Vinnie guilty of the following misconduct.

• Failed to act with due diligence (slacker)
• Failed to inform client of status of legal matters
• Failed to respond to client information requests
• Misrepresented (lied) about status of client’s case
• Failed to provide client with an accounting for 4 months after client’s request

As a consequence of his misconduct, the apologists for Attorney Misfits sitting on the Illinois Supreme Court punished Vinnie by gifting him with a complimentary 120-day suspension of his law license.

As we speak (ca. October 2016), Vinnie practices with the Law Offices of Vincent J. O’Brien at 77 West Washington Street in Chicago, Illinois.

Warning: Vinnie does not carry legal malpractice insurance
