The Tennessee Supreme Court suspended Rutherford County lawyer Jared Michael Streich from the practice of law on June 13 for six years, with five years to be served on active suspension and the remainder on probation. The discipline is conditioned on Streich paying restitution to two former clients and, if reinstated, the appointment of a practice monitor. The court took the action after determining that Streich failed to reasonably communicate with his clients, act in a diligent manner, expedite litigation, act competently, comply with requirements for a suspended attorney and return client property. The court also found that he charged an unreasonable fee and provided false information to the Board of Professional Responsibility. These actions violated Tennessee Rules of Professional Conduct 1.1, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.15, 1.16, 3.2, 3.4 and 8.4.
