Attorney Richard Voss of Rhinelander, WI; certified moron

 
The state of Wisconsin provided Richard W. Voss with a law license in 1976 after he graduated from the University of Wisconsin Law School.
 
The Office of Lawyer Regulation found Richard guilty of the following misconduct.
  1. Failed to reduce a contingent fee agreement to writing as required
  2. Failed to produce trust account records
  3. Failed to respond to inquires from disciplinary agency
  4. Failed to provide competent representation (Dufus)
  5. Failed to respond to request for a file
In one case where he represented clients regarding defective construction of their home, Richard appeared late for a hearing on the contractor’s motion to dismiss the lawsuit, and when the court nonetheless allowed him to be heard on the motion, he presented no evidence to support his opposition to the motion.
 
In addition, Richard never informed his client of the motion to dismiss, the motion hearing, or the court’s dismissal of the contractor from the lawsuit. Richard engaged in the same conduct in regards to the insurance company’s motion to dismiss, which was also granted due to his gross incompetence.
 
As a consequence of his misconduct, the enablers for Attorney Misfits sitting on the Wisconsin Supreme Court punished Richard by gifting him with a complimentary reprimand.
 
As we speak (ca. June 2012) Richard practices with the Voss Law Office at 48 South Stevens Street in Rhinelander, Wisconsin.
