Attorney Annette Oakley of Philadelphia; lying slacker

The state of Pennsylvania provided Annette Maria Oakley (AMO) with a law license in 2003 after she graduated from Widener University Law School.

The Office of Disciplinary Counsel found Annie guilty of the following misconduct. 

• Engaged in the illegal practice of law
• Lied to clients about taking steps regarding judgment
• Improper communications with represented party
• Engaged in conduct prejudicial to the administration of justice
• Failed to act with due diligence (slacker)
• Engaged in conduct involving dishonesty, fraud, deceit, or misrepresentation
• Made false/misleading statements about her services
• Knowingly made a false statement of material fact to a third person
• Failed to explain a matter to the extent reasonably necessary to permit the client to make informed decisions regarding the representation
• Failed to keep client reasonably informed of status of matter

As a direct consequence of her misconduct, the enablers for Attorney Misfits sitting on the Pennsylvania Supreme Court punished Annie by gifting her with a complimentary 1-year suspension of her law license.

As we speak (ca. October 2017), Annie practices at 2015 11^th Street in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

CAUTION: Annie does not carry legal malpractice insurance
