Attorney Phillip Egger of Bellevue, WA; cheating loser

 

The state of Washington presented Phillip E. Egger with a law license in 1980 after he graduated from Gonzaga University School of Law.

 

The Washington State Bar found Phil guilty of the following misconduct.

  • Billed client $21,000 for work that had already been paid for by a third party
  • Failed to obtain client’s written consent to a potential conflict of interest
  • Violated rule requiring that his attorney fee be reasonable (cheater)
  • Phil’s assistance to client A in making loan to condo development provided that the borrower would pay the lender’s legal fees up to $15,000
  • Phil billed client A $21,000 in fees and costs incurred re: the loan transaction
  • Although the borrower paid Phil’s firm $15,000 in fees, the payment was not credited to client A’s account, leading client A to pay the full $21,000 fill
  • Client B contacted Phil’s firm re: representation of her interests as unsecured creditor in bankruptcy matter filed by third party that client B had loaned $66,000
  • Client B was unable to recover the amount of the $66,000 loan
  • Subsequently, Client B persuaded Client A to loan $300,000 to third party
  • Although Client B was named a client of Phil’s firm at the time of loan to the third party, Phil failed to obtain Client A’s written consent after full disclosure of the obvious conflict of interest

As a consequence of his misconduct, the enablers for Attorney Misfits sitting on the Washington Supreme Court punished Phil by gifting him with a complimentary 6-month suspension of his law license.

 

As we speak (ca. March 2019), Phil practices with Phillip E. Egger PC at 989 112th Ave NE in Bellevue, Washington.

 

CAUTION: Phil is not covered by malpractice insurance
