Attorney Gustavo Toledo of Mesa; ethical leprechaun
The state of Arizona presented Gustavo Toledo with a law license in 1988 after he graduated from Arizona State University of Arizona Law School.
The Arizona State Bar found Gustavo guilty of the following misconduct.
-
Failed to act with due diligence (slacker)
-
Failed to communicate with clients
-
Engaged in a pattern of misconduct
-
Failed to take necessary steps to protect client’s interest after being discharged
-

-
Failed to cooperate with State Bar investigators (Up Yours, said Gustavo!)
-

Faield to keep clients informed as to status of legal matters
-
Engaged in criminal conduct adversely reflecting on fitness to practice law

As a consequence of his misconduct, the cheerleaders of Attorney Misfits sitting on the Arizona Supreme Court punished Gustavo by gifting him with a complimentary censure.
As we speak (ca. September 2013) Gustavo practices at 57 North Alma School Road in Mesa, Arizona.
