McMinn County lawyer Larry Dean Cantrell was disbarred from the practice of law today. The Tennessee Supreme Court took the action after finding that he misappropriated funds and did not complete the work to close estates while serving as attorney in three separate estates and trusts. The court also directed Cantrell to pay $65,000 in restitution to his clients. His actions were determined to violate Rules of Professional Conduct 1.3, 1.5(a), 3.2, 3.4(c) and 8.4(a), (b), (c) and (d).
