Description

In this attorney grievance matter, respondent admits that he has committed ethical violations and consents to disbarment pursuant to Paragraph 27 of the Rule on Disciplinary Procedure, Rule 413, SCACR. We accept respondent's admission and disbar him. The Few Matter Respondent was retained to be the escrow agent relative to a settlement. He was to receive a fee of $500.00 for receiving and disbursing $178,673. Respondent admits that he failed to pay $78,744 to Mr. Few and $7,462 to a client of Mr. Poliakoff because his personal use of trust account funds created a shortage in the account. Mr. Few commenced legal action against respondent and subsequently obtained a confession of judgment. As a result of a settlement, this judgment was satisfied by respondent's payment of $60,000 to Mr. Few. The money owed to the client of Mr. Poliakoff has not been paid.
