Hear Ye! Hear Ye!

The Evil Esquire Bar Association is seek­ing pub­lic com­ment regard­ing the adven­tures of California attor­ney Janice Marie Banducci [#102114], prior to accept­ing nom­i­na­tions for her induc­tion into the EEBA.

Janices’s addi­tion to our watch list was pre­cip­i­tated by an anony­mous tip­ster who informed the EEBA she has “engaged in sus­pi­cious prac­tices” which led our tip­ster not to engage her to rep­re­sent them in a fam­ily law mat­ter. Caveat Emptor!

Anyone with infor­ma­tion regard­ing Miss Banducci is encour­aged to anony­mously com­ment to assist con­sumers of legal ser­vices to assess her char­ac­ter and pro­fes­sional abilities.

Janice’s address is as follows:

According to our pub­lic records search, Miss Banducci has no record of dis­ci­pline or admin­is­tra­tive actions with the State Bar of California. Janice obtained her under­grad­u­ate degree from the University of California at Los Angeles and her law degrees from Southwestern University School of Law, also in Los Angeles. She was admit­ted to the State Bar of California on December 15, 1987.

****** STATE BAR OF CALIFORNIA WARNING ******

Consumers of legal ser­vices in California can­not rely on the Cal Bar to assist them in the event they become a vic­tim of, for instance, one of the 13,529 attor­neys com­plaints were filed against in 2008. Moreover, it is very dif­fi­cult to dis­cern whether or not a lawyer has engaged in “mis­con­duct” or even ille­gal activ­ity because the Cal Bar does not pub­lish the com­plaints they “decline” to inves­ti­gate. California con­sumers “roll the dice” every time they retain a lawyer and one out of twelve times they will make the wrong choice.

Interim Chief Trial Counsel Russell Weiner recently expressed bewil­der­ment regard­ing the num­ber of lawyers prey­ing on con­sumers. “The num­ber of attor­neys using their law licenses to essen­tially take money from unwary but trust­ing con­sumers is astound­ing,” accord­ing to Weiner.

Obviously Russ has been liv­ing in a dif­fer­ent dimen­sion and just rejoined the human race here in real­ity. Each year, for­mal com­plaints are filed against 8.5 per­cent of California’s active lawyer pop­u­la­tion. From 2004 through 2008 the Cal Bar dis­ci­plined only 3.1 per­cent of the lawyers regard­ing whom they received com­plaints. During this period, only 0.8 per­cent of com­plaints received by the Cal Bar from con­sumers of legal ser­vices i.e., vic­tim clients, oppos­ing par­ties, etc. resulted in dis­ci­pli­nary action against the offend­ing lawyer. The only con­clu­sion we can draw from our analy­sis is that the California Bar is highly polit­i­cal– read corrupt.

For decades, California’s lawyers have been given too much lat­i­tude by the State Bar to screw con­sumers of legal ser­vices. The cri­sis Russ finds him­self entwined in has been build­ing for years. Radical left wing pro­gres­sives dom­i­nate the Bar’s pol­icy for­mu­la­tion and have sucess­fully moved it away from its char­ter as an attor­ney reg­u­la­tory body into a polit­i­cal instru­ment. They fork over tens of mil­lions in polit­i­cal dona­tions to the likes of Jerry Brown, Nancy Pelosi, SENATOR Barbara Boxer a/k/a Ma’am and too many state assem­bly politi­cos to count. In return they enact or fail to enact leg­is­la­tion to pro­tect California bar mem­bers’ fran­chise to screw con­sumers. In Jerry Brown’s case he sim­ply refuses to inves­ti­gate alle­ga­tions of attor­ney crim­i­nal acts– until the media picks up on a case.

Empty headed, for­mer State Bar Court Judge JoAnne Earls Robbins who crit­i­cizes California bar pros­e­cu­tors as “unrea­son­ably strict” and advo­cates against per­ma­nent dis­bar­ment as well as numer­ous other California attor­neys who’ve suc­cess­fully lob­bied against allow­ing vic­tims state­ments to be heard and con­sid­ered by the State Bar Court when dis­pens­ing dis­ci­pline are the ground troops in this unde­clared war against lib­erty, jus­tice and the prop­erty rights of Californians. It’s Rome all over again!

While California is cer­tainly in the bot­tom quar­tile of U.S. “attor­ney dis­ci­pline” sys­tems, in our opin­ion, no state ade­quately pro­tects con­sumers. EvilEsq.com can help to equal­ize this prob­lem. If you have infor­ma­tion regard­ing the attor­ney men­tioned above please, com­ment on this post, rate the lawyer’s “evil­ity” and assist oth­ers to find EvilEsq.com and this post by using the ShareThis but­ton to post a link to EvilEsq.com.

If you’ve filed a com­plaint against an attor­ney that your state’s bar over­seers have “declined” to inves­ti­gate, for­ward it along with any exhibits thereto for our con­sid­er­a­tion for publication.

If you know of a lawyer who’s wor­thy of induc­tion to the EEBA? Send a brief sum­mary of the lawyer’s qual­i­fi­ca­tions along with his or her full name, state(s) of licen­sure and other iden­ti­fy­ing infor­ma­tion to vic­tims @ evilesq.com and, depend­ing on their con­duct, we’ll add them to our Nominee roles or Watchlist.

We strongly advise any­one con­tem­plat­ing hir­ing a California attor­ney use our LAWYER PROPHYLACTICS.
