April 19, 1998 SCOTT ANTHONY BLADEK [#165516], 32, of San Jose was disbarred April 19, 1998, and ordered to comply with rule 955. Bladek was charged with 18 counts of misconduct, most involving his preparation of living trusts for clients. The State Bar Court found that he failed to prepare a trust for one couple, and did not correct or amend trusts for three other clients, rendering the initial work he did largely without value. The court found that he abandoned four clients after taking their fees, failed to communicate with those clients and two others, and failed to cooperate with the bar's investigation. Bladek was admitted to practice for only three years before the misconduct began and he did not participate in the proceedings against him. |
