Attorney Michael Bishop of Milwaukee; ethical dwarf
The state of Wisconsin presented Michael Francis Bishop with a law license in 1993 after he graduated from Marquette University Law School.
The Office of Lawyer Registration (OLR) found Mike guilty of the following misconduct.
-
Overdrew his trust account (rubber check)
-
Check did not identify client or what it related to
-
Failed to maintain transaction register
-
Failed to maintain client ledgers
-
Failed to perform required monthly reconciliations of client accounts
-
Failed to comply with rules relating to handling of advanced fees
-
Violated the rules by depositing personal funds into trust account
As a consequence of his misconduct, the enablers for Attorney Misfits sitting on the Wisconsin Supreme Court punished Mike by gifting him with a complimentary reprimand.
As we speak (ca. August 2014) Mike practices with the Bishop Law Offices at 8249 West Keefe Avenue in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
