Discipline Summaries

December 13, 2013

J. RANDY DORCY [#170620], 51, of Costa Mesa was disbarred Dec. 20, 2013 and ordered to comply with rule 9.20 of the California Rules of Court and make restitution.

Dorcy was disbarred after his default was entered for failing to respond to the notice of disciplinary charges filed against him for 16 counts of misconduct in five separate client matters. Because he did not seek to have the default set aside within 180 days, as required under rule 5.85 of the State Bar’s Rules of Procedure, he was disbarred and the charges against him were deemed admitted.

Among other misconduct, Dorcy failed to perform legal services competently, respond to client inquiries, take any steps to avoid reasonably foreseeable prejudice to his client, return unearned fees or respond to State Bar investigator’s letters. He improperly withdrew from employment and collected advanced fees to perform loan modification services. Additionally, Dorcy failed to file a declaration of compliance with rule 9.20 as required by a California Supreme Court order.

He was ordered to pay $3,500 plus interest in restitution.
