In December 1998, the Williamsons received their Chapter 7 Notice of Discharge. When Mrs. Williamson spoke with her defense counsel, she was dismayed to learn that the personal injury plaintiff was not noticed of the bankruptcy . Defense counsel tried on numerous occasions to discuss this issue with you. Finally, defense counsel received written confirmation that you corrected the error. Although this matter finally resolved in the Williamsons' favor, your failure to initially address Mrs. Williamson's concern about the personal injury lawsuit unnecessarily complicated the case, and caused your client distress.
Based upon your misconduct in representing the Williamsons, you are hereby publicly reprimanded for violation of the following Supreme Court Rules of Professional Conduct: SCR 153 (Diligence) for failing to act with reasonable diligence in representing the Williamsons and SCR 154 (Communication) for failing to keep the Williamsons reasonably informed about the status of the matter, failing to comply with reasonable requests for information and failing to explain the matter to the extent reasonably necessary to permit the client to make informed decisions regarding the representation.
