Attorney Christopher Griffin of Westminster, CO; cheating drunk
The state of Colorado presented Christopher L. Griffin with a law license in 1995 after he graduated from the University of Denver School of Law.
Disciplinary Counsel found Chris guilty of the following misconduct.
-
Failed to keep required financial records
-
Neglected to provide any fee agreement to the client
-
Failed to adequately communicate with his client about the case
-
Failed to respond to client information requests
-
Mistakenly treated $500 belonging to his client as earned and deposited that money into his operating account
-
Failed again to provide a written statement explaining his fee
-
Client fired Chris and demanded a refund
-
Over a period of months, Chris disregarded client’s multiple requests for an update
-
Provided no benefit or legal service to the client, who had to pay for a new lawyer
-
Arrested and pled guilty to driving under the influence (DUI)
-
Failed to maintain trust account records
-
Failed to protect a client’s interests upon termination of the representation
-
Failed to return unearned fees [cheater]
As a consequence of his misconduct, the apologists for Attorney Misfits sitting on the Colorado Supreme Court punished Chris by gifting him with a complimentary 2-month suspension of his law license.
As we speak, (ca. April 2019), Chris practices at 12207 Pecos Street in Westminster, Colorado.
CAUTION: Chris does not carry legal malpractice insurance
