The Tennessee Supreme Court today suspended the law license of Shelby County lawyer TeShaun David Moore for six years retroactive to March 7, 2018, with four years to be served on active suspension and the remainder on probation. The court also ordered Moore to obtain an evaluation with the Tennessee Lawyers Assistance Program, engage the services of a practice monitor and pay restitution to multiple clients. Moore admitted he failed to distribute settlement funds to clients, failed to distribute funds to insurance companies with liens, missed scheduled court dates, failed to communicate with clients, and failed to notify clients he had been suspended. Moore agreed to a conditional guilty plea acknowledging his conduct violated Rules of Professional Conduct 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.15, 1.16, 3.2, 3.3, 4.1, 8.1 and 8.4.
