December 19, 1999 FRANKLIN FEIGENBAUM [#134403], 37, of Northridge was suspended for six months, stayed, placed on one year of probation with a 90-day actual suspension, and was ordered to take the MPRE within a year and comply with rule 955. The order took effect Dec. 19, 1999. Feigenbaum was hired as an independent contract attorney to represent a corporate client. Although he filed the client’s answer to a complaint and filed a statement of claim in the arbitration phase of the case, he did no further work.He did not communicate with the client or notify the client about a hearing, missed a conference call dealing with the arbitration, and did not respond to requests for a status report.When the State Bar tried to investigate, an inquiry letter was returned as undeliverable.Feigenbaum then changed his address and went inactive at the same time, but he did not cooperate with the investigation.In a default proceeding, the bar court found that he withdrew from employment without protecting his client’s interests and failed to keep his client informed about developments in its case. |
