The law license of John Jay Clark was suspended on June 26 based on four complaints of misconduct. Clark failed to remit $24,000.00 in attorney’s fees to the law firm at which he was employed; altered a verification from a pleading to make it appear the document was executed on a later date; notarized the verification and filed the pleading with the Juvenile Court without the knowledge or consent of his client. Clark attempted to visit clients in jail on at least 29 occasions while his license to practice law was suspended for non-compliance with CLE requirements. In mitigation, Clark fully reimbursed his former law firm for the fees and cooperated with the Board in the disciplinary proceedings. View BPR notice.
