Attorney Elliott Wachtel of Hollywood, CA; ethical elf

The state of California provided Elliott J. Wachtel with a law license in 1982 after he graduated from Golden West University Law School.

Golden West is a Fourth tier school that takes in loser that couldn’t get accepted at mainstream schools like UCLA, UC Davis, Stanford or Pepperdine.

The California State Bar Court found Bobby Elliott of the following misconduct

In one matter, Elliott found it acceptable to prepare an order approving a request for attorney’s fees and vocational rehabilitation benefits in a workers’ compensation case and had a colleague sign it. Under the signature was a notation JPT (Judge Pro Tem).

The judge for the Workers’ Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB) later determined the order was not signed by a WCAB judge and therefore was not valid.

As a consequence of his misconduct, the apologists for Attorney Misfits sitting on the Bar Court punished Bobby by gifting him with a complimentary stayed 180-day suspension of his law license.

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

As we speak (ca. October 2014) Elliott practices at 6464 West Sunset Blvd in Hollywood, California.
