Barrister Peter Jefferies of New Zealand; imbecilic loser

 

The Law Society of New Zealand presented Peter Joseph Jefferies with a law license in 2001.

 

The found New Zealand Lawyers and Conveyancers Disciplinary Tribunal found Pete guilty of the following misconduct.

  • Serious failures in meeting professional obligations
  • Engaged in unsatisfactory conduct
  • Serious failures in meeting trust account obligations
  • Failed to obtain prior informed consent of the parties re: conflict of interest
  • Failed to inform his clients he could no long act for them
  • Failed to communicate with clients
  • Conduct fell short of standard of competence (imbecile)
  • Failed to act with due diligence (slacker)

As a consequence of his misconduct, the patron saints for Attorney Misfits sitting on the New Zealand Disciplinary Tribunal punished Pete by gifting him with a complimentary censure and a $10,000 fine.

 

As we speak (ca. August 2016), Pete practices with Jefferies Law Limited at 33 Harwood Street in Hamilton, New Zealand.
