Mishandling client funds will do it. Mishandling the client themselves? not so much. In the 2018-initated Florida federal litigation involving one of the con-artists pretending to be the creator of Bitcoin his latest stunt to avoid paying what he owes is having his wife roll up and claim to have actually been the true plaintiff all along and attempting to file motions to dismiss the real plaintiff's attorneys and kick the real plaintiff out of the case. The con's attorneys are now up for contempt. Is it for their involvement in this farce pretending to be both sides of the case? No. It's because they filed a required debtor-information form attorneys eyes only (and persisted in defending it when challenged) both in clear violation of the standing confidentiality agreement and when the only information on it had already been testified to by their client in open court. They'll probably get free of it too, suffering nothing more than the other sides costs they created. Attorneys can make a mockery of the legal system and not get disbarred. It's rare for them to get in serious trouble for anything other than a fairly narrow set of bright line violations. I knew an attorney that was disbarred after having an affair with their client's spouse. But the disbarment wasn't due to the affair, its because they used client funds to finance it.
