I should clarify: I greatly simplified what happened.
At the time, I was a law student assisting a lawyer in a medical malpractice case. The doctor threatened to make negative statements about my moral character to the bar association in what I assume was an attempt to prevent my admission to the bar.
On its own, that would not have been enough to get him suspended. However, it was the final straw, and it was the straw the board chose to mention when they suspended him. I always thought it was weird that they went with that as opposed to the crap he'd put his patients through.
- jasonlotito 16y agoOkay. That makes more sense. I also assume your other examples were also grossly simplified as well, and that all the opposite sides were, in fact, in the wrong. Which, I think is contrary to the point of the original article. The original article makes the assumption that you are, in fact,merely getting bullied, and that the lawyer approaching you is threatening you. Your stories would have more weight if you were bullying people who had done no wrong at the request of your client.
