Attorney Anish Parikh of Chicago; ethical goblin

The state of Illinois presented Anish A. Parikh a law license in 2009 after he graduated from DePaul University School of Law.

The Disciplinary Commission found Anish guilty of the following misconduct.

• Commingled client funds with personal funds
• Engaged in conduct involving fraud, deceit, dishonesty or misrepresentation
• Knowingly engaged in the unauthorized use of a client’s money for his own personal or business purposes
• Converted $7,159.94 of client funds money for his own personal or business purposes
• Converted $21,035.53 of client or third-party money for his own personal or business purposes
• Converted $9,901.82 of client or third-party money for his own personal or business purposes
• Converted $21,035.53 of client or third-party money for his own personal or business purposes
• Failed to disclose a fact necessary to correct a misapprehension known by the person to have arisen in the matter

As a direct consequence of his misconduct, the enablers for Attorney Misfits sitting on the Illinois Supreme Court punished Anish by gifting him with a complimentary 5-month suspension of his law license.

As we speak (May 2019), Anish practices with the Parikh Law Group at 150 South Wacker Drive in Chicago, Illinois.
