Real Estate License Misuse, False Statements Draw Suspension

The Wisconsin Supreme Court has imposed a 90-day suspension as reciprocal discipline based on an Illinois sanction for the following misconduct:

Attorney M. obtained a Wisconsin real estate broker’s license in 2008.  In 2009 Attorney M. used his Wisconsin real estate broker’s license to enter a Kenosha, Wisconsin, condominium owned by his client’s opponent in litigation, and obtained evidence that he later used in that litigation matter.  Attorney M. also made false statements to a police officer investigating [his] entry into the condominium.

Illinois had also suspended the attorney for 90 days. (Mike Frisch)
