Supreme Court of Colorado

The People of the State of Colorado v. Erik G. Fischer

May 7, 2010237 P.3d 645

Summary

The court approved a ninety-day suspension of Erik G. Fischer, stayed during a one-year probationary period conditioned on no further disciplinary violations. Fischer knowingly failed to make the disclosures required before entering into business transactions with his client, including loans secured by the client’s recovery, home, and personal property. Significant mitigating factors justified departing from the presumptive sanction of an actual suspension.
