Attorney Michael Lea of Thomasville, NC; ethical dwarf

The state of North Carolina provided Michael D. Lea with a law license in 1969 after he graduated from Samford University School of Law.

The Grievance Committee of the North Carolina State Bar found Mike guilty of the following misconduct.

• Neglected client matter entrusted to him
• Failed to communicate with client
• Improperly signed client’s name to affidavit, notarized the affidavit, and submitted it to court

As a consequence of his misconduct the cheerleaders for Attorney Misfits sitting on the Grievance Committee of the North Carolina State Bar punished Mike by gifting him with a complimentary 6-month suspension of his law license.

As we speak (ca. January 2015) Mike practices at 43 Salem Street in Thomasville, North Carolina.
