Decisions
Board Report and Orders (June 24, 2024)
Summary: In re Steven Villarreal. Bar No. 482284. June 24, 2024. The Board on Professional Responsibility recommended that the D.C. Court of Appeals suspend Villarreal for 30 days, stayed in favor of one year of unsupervised probation with terms, for violations of Rules 1.1(a), 1.1(b), and 1.3(a). Specifically, Villarreal was hired to file an immigration petition but failed to obtain the documentation that was required to support the petition, and then filed a document that was patently deficient. Villarreal thereby failed to provide competent representation and failed to represent the client with diligence and zeal.
