It's rare that someone goes from honest attorney to a serial multimillion dollar scammer abruptly. Clearly this guy was always shady.
The guy is also arrogant and stupid. You never mess with you client’s money. It goes into a trust account. When you are investigated by the state bar on a client complaint (yes it’s happened to me), the first thing they do is request all your client trust account bank statements, regardless of the nature of the allegation. Any discrepancies will result in, at minimum, a suspension, if not disbarment.
