Attorney Bassey Akpaffiong of Sugar Land, TX; ethical twerp

 
The state of Texas presented Bassey Otu Akpaffiong with a law license in 1998 after he graduated Texas Southern University Law School.
 
A panel of the District 5-A Grievance Committee found Bassey guilty of the following misconduct. 
  1. Failed to return client papers to client after being fired
  2. Neglected legal matter entrusted to him (slacker)
  3. Failed to keep client informed about status of her legal matter
  4. Failed to comply with client’s requests for information
After the conclusion of one matter, Bassey failed to provide his client with a written statement describing the outcome of her case and showing the remittance and method of its determination.
 
As a consequence of his misconduct the cheerleaders for Attorney Misfits sitting on the Grievance Committee punished Bassey by gifting him with a complimentary stayed 1-year suspension of his law license. In truth, the comics sitting on the committee didn’t actually mete out any meaningful punishment to Bassey.
