Attorney Robert Garnsey of Astoria, NY; ethical troll

The state of New York presented Robert Francis Garnsey with a law license in 1994 after he graduated from the State University of New York at Buffalo School of Law.

The Appellate Division Grievance Committee found Bobby guilty of engaging in the following misconduct.

• Engaged in illegal practice of law while license suspended
• Failed to file annual attorney registration statement
• Failed to pay biennial attorney registration fee
• Failed to earn required CLE (Continuing Legal Education) credits over the course of four registration cycles
• Failure to registration failures saved Bobby time and money, which demonstrated a selfish motive
• Engaged in a pattern of misconduct by representing parties in over a dozen matters while not authorized to practice law

As a direct consequence of his misconduct, the enablers for Attorney Misfits sitting on the Grievance Committee punished Bobby by gifting him with a complimentary 2-year suspension of his law license.  

As we speak (ca. January 2023), Bobby practices his so-called brand of law at 3150 35^th Street in Astoria, New York.
