Attorney Ronald Bruce Jr. of Taylor, MI; thieving slacker

The state of Michigan provided Ronald Thomas Bruce Jr. with a law license in 2001 after he graduated from Wayne State University Law School.

The Tri-County Hearing Panel 24 found Ronnie guilty of the following misconduct.

• Neglected legal matter entrusted to him
• Failed to act with due diligence (slacker)
• Failed to keep client informed of status of matter
• Failed to explain matter to the extent reasonably necessary to permit his clients to make informed decisions regarding the representation
• Failed to communicate to client basis or rate of his fee before or within a reasonable time after commencing the representation
• Continued in representation of client after being terminated
• Failed to refund unearned fee (thief)
• Failed to cooperate with ethics investigators (Screw you, said Ronnie!)
  

As a direct consequence of his misconduct, the cheerleaders for Attorney Misfits sitting on the Michigan Supreme Court punished Ronnie by gifting him with a complimentary 180-day suspension of his law license.

As we speak (ca. July 2018), Ronnie practices at 20600 Eureka Road in Taylor, Michigan.
