Attorney Sean Young of North Salt Lake, UT; ignorant slacker
The State of Utah provided Sean Young with a law license in 2006 after he graduated from Creighton University School of Law.
The Ethics and Discipline Committee of the Utah Supreme Court found Sean guilty of the following misconduct.
-
Failed to provide competent representation (ignoramus)
-
Failed to communicate with client
-
Failed to act with due diligence (slacker)
-
Failed to safeguard client funds
-
Failed to decline/terminate representation when required to so act
-
Failed to cooperate with ethics investigators (Screw you, said Sean!)
-
Received fee to represent client for adjustment of immigration status; however, Sean failed to file the petition
-
Failed to appear at removal hearing on client’s behalf
-
Filed motion to reopen immigration status matter, but failed to attach adequate proof to substantiate the client’s marriage, thereby leading to its denial by the immigration court
-
Failed to advise client motion to reopen immigration matter was denied
-
Agreed to represent client in filing appeal of denial to reopen immigration matter, but Sean failed to file an appellate brief on client’s behalf
-
Client retained new counsel and based on Sean’s ineffective representation, new counsel was able to reopen the case and ultimately obtain permanent residency for the client
-
Failed to provide an accounting of the work he performed on behalf of the client
-
Failed to respond to multiple client requests for copies of his discovery and file
-
Failed to provide an accounting of the work he performed on behalf of a client
As a direct consequence of his misconduct, the apologists for Attorney Misfits sitting on the Utah Supreme Court punished Sean by gifting him with a complimentary 3-year suspension of his law license.
As we speak, (ca. April 2020), Sean practices with Anderson & Young at 460 East 1000 North in North Salt Lake, Utah
