The People of the State of Colorado, Complainant v. Caroline Fain, Respondent

Summary

The court determined that an out-of-state attorney practicing in Colorado was subject to Colorado's disciplinary jurisdiction and rules. By default, the attorney admitted charging an unreasonable fee, disclosing confidential client information, and making false statements about the client, warranting a one-year-and-one-day suspension. The court also ordered restitution of $20,000 plus statutory interest and payment of disciplinary costs.
