- imposing a one-year suspension on an attorney who, for an unrelated client, prepared a will and established joint-and-survivorship accounts through which the attorney and his son received more than $200,000
Written by the judges who cited it.
The opinion
Per Curiam.
This court finds that respondent violated the aforementioned Disciplinary Rule. While we adopt the board’s findings, we find that respondent’s conduct requires a more severe sanction than that recommended by the board. Accordingly, respondent is hereby ordered suspended from the practice of law in Ohio for one year. Costs taxed to respondent.
Judgment accordingly.
Moyer, C.J., Sweeney, Locher, Douglas, Wright and H. Brown, JJ., concur.
Holmes, J., dissents.
