Attorney Shawn Dillon of Tewksbury, MA; ethical goblin

 

The state of Massachusetts presented Shawn E. Dillon with a law license in 1999.

 

The Board of Bar Overseers found Shawn guilty of the following misconduct.

  1. Engaged in the unauthorized practice of law (UPL) while license suspended
  2. Failed to act with due diligence (slacker)
  3. Failed to advise prospective clients that he license was suspended
  4. Failed to refund unearned fee (thief)

During the time Shawn’s law license was suspended, he continued to practice law and failed to notify his clients, opposing counsel and the courts of his suspension as required.

 

In one matter before his suspension, Shawn was retained to represent a client in a property dispute. Shawn was paid $1,200 by the clients to file a lawsuit on their behalf. Shawn failed to file the lawsuit and took little action of substance on the client’s behalf.

 

Subsequently, Shawn intentionally misrepresented (lied) to the client that there was a court hearing scheduled in their case. After his suspension, Shawn failed to inform the client he was suspended, failed to withdraw from the representation, failed to make the file available to the client, and failed to return the unearned portion of their fee.

 

After the client’s fired Shawn they demanded an accounting of the $1,200 he was paid; however, he failed to provide the accounting to the client (victim).

 

As a consequence of his misconduct, the apologists for Attorney Misfits sitting on the Board of Overseers punished Shawn by gifting him with a complimentary reprimand.

 

As we speak (ca. March 2013) Shawn practices at 147 Heritage Drive in Tewksbury, Massachusetts.

 

Warning: Shawn does not carry legal malpractice insurance
