Attorney Lawrence Winkfield of Westerville, OH; ethical elf

The state of Ohio presented Lawrence Edward Winkfield with a law license in 1975 after he graduated from Ohio State University Law School.

The Columbus Bar Association found Larry guilty of misconduct.

• Failed to promptly pay funds client legally entitled too
• Failed to show any remorse for misconduct
• Willfully failed to acknowledge obligation owed to client

As a consequence of his misconduct, the cheerleaders for Attorney Misfits sitting on the Ohio Supreme Court punished Leo by gifting him with a complimentary stayed 1-year suspension of his law license.

In truth, the comedians sitting on the Ohio Supreme Court didn’t mete out any meaningful punishment to Larry.

As we speak (ca. September 2014) Larry practices at 400 Sweetgum Way in Westerville, Ohio, which is a suburb of Columbus.
