Knox County lawyer Roger David Hyman received a public censure from the Tennessee Supreme Court on April 28. The court found that Hyman violated Rules of Professional Conduct 1.2 and 1.4 when he failed to promptly communicate with opposing counsel his client’s desire to withdraw from a divorce settlement. The court found that Hyman also failed to take any other action to protect his client’s interests, causing his client potential injury. Hyman executed a conditional guilty plea acknowledging his conduct violated the rules.
