Attorney Sigismund Wysolmerski of Rutland, VT; ethical troll

The State of Vermont presented Sigismund Wysolmerski C. Robert Manby Jr. with a law license in 198o after he graduated from the Vermont School of Law.

The Vermont Bar Court found Sigismund guilty of engaging in the following misconduct.

• Engaged in conduct involving fraud, deceit, dishonesty, or misrepresentation
• Engaged in a pattern of misconduct
• Failed to act with due diligence (slacker)
• Failed to disclose material information in the course of a court proceeding
• Failed to keep client informed of status of matter
• Falsely notarized several affidavits
• Misconduct involved multiple offenses
• Acted with a dishonest motive with his notarization of affidavits filed in a lawsuit and in omitting from his motion for default judgment material information
• Failed to communicate with his client
• Knowingly failed to perform promised services on behalf of his client
• Failure to communicate with client led to client loser right to appeal
• Breached his duty of diligence owed to his client
• Failed to respond to client communications

As a direct consequence of his misconduct, the patron saints for Attorney Misfits sitting on the Vermont Bar Court punished Sigismund by gifting him with a complimentary 12-month suspension of his law license. 

As we speak (ca. May 2020), Sigismund practices at 189 Crescent Street in Rutland, Vermont.
