Law Students, Lawyers and Judges With Broken Ethics Alarms, 2009

I won’t keep you in suspense: my favorite is the Harvard law school whiz who celebrated his job offer from a top law firm by getting drunk and burning down a church. Forgot to check the batteries in the ol’ ethics alarm, I guess!

Here are two cautionary end-of-year lists: from the Avvo blog, the “Top Lawyers Behaving Badly” list for 2009, and, though not rich a source for  black humor, the even more disturbing “Year’s Most Infamous Lawyers” from the Business Insider.

Ethics Alarms thanks  Robert Ambrogi for finding them, as well the Avvo and the Business Insider for doing such an excellent job of compiling them.
