Shelby County lawyer Don Anthony Handley was censured today based on two complaints. The court found that in the first complaint, Handley failed to timely file suit for a personal injury client. In the second complaint, the court found that he delayed transferring settlement funds from a trust account to a medical provider claiming a subrogation interest. In both complaints, Handley also failed to maintain good communication with his clients. His actions were determined to violate Rules of Professional Conduct 1.1, 1.3, 1.4, 1.15 and 1.16(d).
