Attorney Phillip Cook Jr. of Little Rock, AR; ethical elf

The state of Arkansas presented Phillip D. Cook Jr. with a law license in 1993 after he graduated from the University of Arkansas Law School.

The Committee on Professional found Phil guilty of engaging in the following misconduct.

• Engaged in illegal practice of law while license suspended
• Failed explain a matter to the extent reasonably necessary to permit the client to make informed decisions regarding the representation
• Provided false information to this client about the status of his matter
• Engaged in conduct involving fraud, deceit, dishonesty, or misrepresentation
• Engaged in conduct prejudicial to the administration of justice

As a direct consequence of his misconduct, the apologists for Attorney Misfits sitting on the Committee on Professional Conduct punished Phil by gifting him with a complimentary 18-month suspension of his law license and fined him $1,000.00.

As we speak (ca. August 2022), Phil practices his so-called brand of law at 8 Shackleford Plaza in Little Rock, Arkansas.
