Hear Ye! Hear Ye!
The Evil Esquire Bar Association is seeking public comment regarding the misadventures of California attorney Elise Marie Mitchell [#102116], prior to accepting nominations for her induction into the EEBA.
Elise’s addition to our watch list was precipitated by an anonymous tipster who informed the EEBA that “complaints have been filed against her with authorities.” According to information obtained by the EEBA, Elise is a family law (pardon the oxymoron) attorney who one commentor on another Internet site described as “rude, tactless and a complete failure as an attorney”. Caveat Emptor!
Anyone with information regarding Miss Mitchell is encouraged to anonymously comment to assist consumers of legal services to assess her character and professional abilities.
Mitchell’s address is as follows:
Law Office of Elise Marie Mitchell
888 N 1st St Ste 303
San Jose, CA 95112-6314
Phone: +1 (408) 297-8080
Fax: +1 (408) 298-6690
Email: elise@emitchell-law.com
Elsie obtained her undergraduate degree from the University of California at San Diego and her law degree from Duquesne University School of Law in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. According to her bar record Elsie has “no public record of discipline” nor any record of administrative actions.
****** 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.
