Discipline Summaries

April 17, 2011

TRISTAN RANDALL PICO [#64482], 64, of Gilbert, Ariz., was suspended for one year, stayed, placed on two years of probation with a six-month actual suspension and he was ordered to take the MPRE within one year and comply with rule 9.20 of the California Rules of Court. The order took effect April 17, 2011.

Pico stipulated to eight counts of misconduct in two personal injury matters he settled. The first went to mediation and Pico settled the case for $20,000. After deducting fees and costs, he was required to maintain more than $12,000 in trust for his client but he allowed the balance to drop to about $2,600.

He had delayed negotiating and paying medical liens during mediation and did not respond to his client’s repeated requests that he pay her medical bills. He also did not pay the client her share of the settlement for 15 months.

Pico also settled the second case, but allowed the balance in his trust account to fall below the required amount. One of his client’s medical providers referred the unpaid bill to a debt collection agency, but Pico never paid.

He stipulated that he failed to respond to reasonable client inquiries, maintain or pay out client funds, and he misappropriated more than $12,000, committing acts of moral turpitude.

In mitigation, Pico had serious financial problems that led to depression, and he cooperated with the bar’s investigation and demonstrated remorse.
