Solicitor Nurgus Malik of United Kingdom; ethical goblin
The Law Society presented Nurgus Malik with a law license in 2009.
The Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal found Nurgus guilty of the following misconduct.
-
Caused harm to the immigration system, the courts and the Home Office
-
Submitted numerous spurious (frivolous) immigration applications
-
Brought claims which were an abuse of process of the court
-
Caused harm to vulnerable clients
-
Unfairly raised clients’ expectations in obtaining indefinite leave to remain in England
-
Misconduct detrimental to the public purse, with resources being diverted away from genuine claims
-
Pursued course of conduct that undermined the operation of the immigration system
-
Charged fees to vulnerable clients for services which had no prospect of delivering for the client their desired outcome
-
Engaged in conduct prejudicial to the administration of justice
-
Prepared applications for judicial review for clients when she knew or ought to have known that the claims were totally without merit
As a direct consequence of her misconduct, the enablers for Solicitor Misfits sitting on the Disciplinary Tribunal punished Nurgus by gifting her with a complimentary £12,000 (US $14,590.00) fine and assessed costs of £26,552 (US $32,283.00).
As we speak (ca. October 2019), Nurgus practices London, England.
