Attorney John Blanchard of Lakewood, CA; thief, check bouncer

The state of California provided John Roger Blanchard with a law license in 1987 after he graduated from Santa Clara University Law School.

The California State Bar found Johnny guilty of the following misconduct.

• Engaged in multiple acts of wrongdoing
• Engaged in trust account violations
• Wrote checks on insufficient funds account (rubber)
• Grossly negligently in handling of client funds
• Misappropriated (stole) client funds
• Failed to cooperate with ethics investigators (Up yours, said Johnny!)
• Refused or was unable to account for entrusted client funds

As consequence of his misconduct, the supporters for Attorney Misfits sitting on the State Bar Court punished Johnny by gifting him with a complimentary stayed 2-year suspension of his law license.

In truth, the comedians sitting on the California State Bar Court didn’t mete out any meaningful punishment to Johnny.

As we speak (ca. July 2017), Jeff practices with the Law Office of John R. Blanchard at 5220 Clark Avenue in Lakewood, California.
