In
one matter, Leonard deposited $47,402 of a client’s funds into his
trust account, which he was to hold in trust for the benefit of the
client with the understanding that he would issue payments to her as
needed. Leonard didn’t transfer the funds as required into an individual
interest-bearing client trust account. Over several months, Leonard
distributed $34,950 for the client’s benefit; however, because he
commingled the client’s funds with his personal funds, he misused $12,443 of the client’s funds.

This wasn’t Leonard’s 1st bite at the Attorney Misfit Apple Tree. He previously received a complimentary admonition regarding two client matters. In the first case, Leonard handled an immigration matter that he wasn’t competent to handle (moron). In the second matter, he neglected to timely draft and record a family trust (slacker).
