Office of Disciplinary Counsel v. Furth9/19/2001
vacate a court order and to obtain money settlements in his own and in others' personal injury cases,
ù Withholding settlement monies from a client, and
ù Using unverifiable and self-laudatory statements in advertisements.
In only a few disciplinary cases has a lawyer violated so many rules of conduct as respondent has violated here. His myriad violations of express rules are not isolated incidents but form a distinct pattern of disregard for the courts, clients, other professionals, and for his own integrity. Because respondent has demonstrated blatant disregard for the most important standards by which members of the bar of Ohio are expected to conduct their professional activities, respondent is hereby permanently disbarred from the practice of law in Ohio. Costs are taxed to respondent.
Judgment accordingly.
Petree, Resnick, F.E. Sweeney, Cook and Lundberg Stratton, JJ., concur.
Pfeifer, J., dissents and would indefinitely suspend respondent.
Charles R. Petree, J., of the Tenth Appellate District, sitting for Douglas, J.
