When the client tried to cash the check Nunez issued, it was returned for insufficient funds. By not maintaining sufficient funds in his client trust account, Nunez misappropriated client funds.Hired by a couple to handle a civil matter, Nunez never responded to their telephone calls or pursued the matter, and his clients lost their cause of action. He failed to return their unearned fees and he withdrew from representation without protecting their interests.In a criminal case, Nunez accepted advance payment from the defendant’s mother. When the clients decided not to hire Nunez, he refused to refund any fees.Nunez has a prior record of discipline. |
