Attorney Scott Blair of Scottsdale; repeat offender
The state of Arizona presented Gary Beren with a law license in 1985 after he graduated from the University of Arizona Law School.
The Arizona State Bar found Scott guilty of the following misconduct.
Scott’s 1st bite at the Attorney Misfit Apple Tree
Scott entered into a business transaction with a client by obtaining a loan from the client. Initially, Scott didn’t pay back the loan and the client contacted the State Bar.
After the complaint was filed, Scott paid back the $20,000; however he never paid any interest on the loan to the client as he had agreed to do. Subsequently, the State Bar ordered that Scott pay the client 10% interest per annum on the loan.
As a consequence of his misconduct, the cheerleaders of Attorney Misfits sitting on the Arizona Supreme Court punished Scott by gifting him with a complimentary 60-day suspension of his law license.
Scott’s 2nd bite at the Attorney Misfit Apple Tree
In one matter, Scott was hired to assist in the structuring of a new company. At the request of the client, Scott presented a nondisclosure agreement to a third party listing himself as the owner of the new company, which if fact was patently false.
As a consequence of his misconduct, the cheerleaders of Attorney Misfits sitting on the Arizona Supreme Court punished Scott by gifting him with a complimentary censure.
As we speak (ca. June 2013) Scott practices with The Blair Law Firm PLC in Scottsdale, Arizona.
Warning: Scott doesn’t carry legal malpractice insurance
