Inappropriate Physical Contact

A reprimand has been accepted by the Arizona Presiding Disciplinary Judge

In December 2017, Mr. Foley had an initial consultation with a client in a bankruptcy matter. An attorney-client relationship was established at the consultation and immediately after the consultation, Mr. Foley made inappropriate physical contact with the client. Telephonic conversations followed, and the attorney-client relationship was terminated before any services were performed and no fees were charged.

He must serve 18 months probation. (Mike Fr isch)
