Attorney Sarah Clemment of Madison, WI; Dumbo, liar, ethical flyweight

 
The Wisconsin Supreme Court was in error when it presented Sarah Clemment with a law license in September 2000.
 
Despite being a certified Dumbo, Sarah likes to sell herself as an expert immigration lawyer. With all of the foreign students attending the University of Wisconsin in Madison this field would be ripe for anyone that was competent in the field.
 
In Dec 2005 Sarah agreed to represent a woman who was making an asylum application to the Immigration Service. Following an asylum interview, Sarah’s client was placed in removal proceedings before the Department of Justice. The Immigration Court set a final hearing date of Jan 30, 2008 to consider the client’s asylum application, as well as her removal from the US.
 
On Jan 28, the client came to Sarah’s office to discuss the hearing. Sarah lied to her client by telling her the hearing was set for Jan 3, and that she wouldn’t attend the hearing without being paid for outstanding attorney fees. The client then paid the fees. On Jan 31 Sarah and the client raveled to Chicago to appear before an immigration judge, however, the client then learned that the hearing had taken place on Jan 30, and t he judge entered an order denying asylum and ordered the client’s deportation.
 
Sarah’s response to the deportation order was to file a motion to reopen the asylum proceedings. However, her motion was deceitful and she failed to pay the necessary filing fee and also to submit affidavits or other evidence to support the motion. Due to Sarah the Dumbo’s conduct the motion was denied. Sarah then filed a notice of appeal; however, she again failed to file required documents along with notice.
 
When the client asked Sarah about the status of her case, she told her the application had been denied and there was nothing further she could do on the case. Sarah knew this was a lie because the appeal had yet to be ruled on.
 
Subsequently, the client filed an ethics complaint with the Office of Lawyer Regulation (OLR) against Sarah the Dumbo for her misconduct as set forth above.
 
As a consequence of her misconduct, the enablers and apologists sitting on the OLR and the Wisconsin Supreme Court punished Sarah by gifting her with a public reprimand.
 
As we speak (ca. Sept 2011) Sarah the Dumbo continues to practice her so-called brand of law at 5 83 D’Onofrio Drive in Madison.
