Attorney Joseph Finley of Bellevue, WA; ethical misfit

The state of Washington presented Joseph Cox Finley with a law license in 1978 after he graduated from the University of Oregon.

The Washington State Bar found Joey guilty of the following misconduct.

• Failed to safeguard client property
• Improperly deposited personal funds into attorney trust account
• Caused an insufficient debit of $1,000 on trust account to occur (rubber)

As a consequence of his misconduct, the enablers for Attorney Misfits sitting on the Washington State Supreme Court punished Joey by gifting him with a complimentary reprimand.

As we speak (ca. December 2014), Joey practices at 227 Bellevue Way NE in Bellevue, Washington.
