Discipline Summaries
June 25, 2015 CLAYTON MARLOW ANDERSON JR. [#69988], 67, of Anaheim, was disbarred June 25, 2015 and ordered to comply with rule 9.20 of the California Rules of Court and make restitution. Anderson stipulated to misconduct in seven construction defect cases he handled, including entering into a business transaction with a client, misappropriation and failure to obtain the informed written consent of clients, maintain entrusted funds or maintain required client trust account records.In six of the seven matters, Anderson made restitution totaling $30,193.57.In the seventh matter, a property owners’ association hired Anderson to file a construction defect case on its behalf. He did not receive the informed written consent of the property owners to represent the interests of the association and the individual property owners, which were potentially conflicting because the damages each property owner suffered and the share each would receive of any settlement had not been determined at the time Anderson was employed. After the case settled, Anderson invested $800,000 of the funds in A-Plan Investment Services, an investment vehicle he operated to invest funds in his construction defect cases. The terms of the investment were not set forth in writing or fully disclosed to the authorized agents for the association. The agents did not consent to the investment in writing and were not advised they could seek the advice of an independent lawyer.A-Plan made interest payments totaling $153,925.38, but as of the date of his stipulation Anderson had not repaid the remaining $748,265.62. He was ordered to pay that amount plus interest in restitution.In mitigation, he had no prior discipline and entered into a pretrial stipulation with the State Bar. |
