Supreme Court of Colorado
The People of the State of Colorado v. William A. Alexander Jr.
May 8, 2012281 P.3d 496
Summary
The court imposed disbarment after Respondent defaulted in a disciplinary proceeding involving knowing conversion of client funds, unearned retainers, dishonesty, neglect, inadequate communication, and failure to notify clients of his disability inactive status. Applying the disciplinary standards, the court concluded that the repeated conversions, extensive client harm, aggravating circumstances, and lack of meaningful mitigation warranted disbarment and an award of proceeding costs.
