Discipline Summaries
March 26, 2010 LOUIS F. DOYLE [#79977], 61, of San Martin was suspended for one year, stayed, placed on four years of probation with an actual 60-day suspension and he was ordered to take the MPRE within one year. The order took effect March 26, 2010. Doyle stipulated to three counts of misconduct stemming from his representation of a client who had hired a non-attorney business, Investors Recovery Services Inc. (IRSI), to bring an action against a brokerage company. Doyle signed on with IRSI to handle an arbitration.After the client was awarded $20,000 in compensatory damages, she disputed Doyle’s proposed distribution of the funds, asked that he return the money to the defendant’s counsel and dismissed Doyle. He disregarded her directives and gave the money to IRSI. IRSI provided his share of the settlement money, but the client did not receive any funds for three years, when she received partial payment.Doyle stipulated that he breached his fiduciary duty to the client by distributing the settlement funds against her instructions and withdrawing client funds from a trust account before a dispute was settled. He also shared fees with a non-lawyer and misappropriated client funds, committing an act of moral turpitude.In mitigation, Doyle has no prior discipline record and he demonstrated remorse. |
