James P. Dillon, Jr. Reviews

  • Aug 22, 2016

The state of Massachusetts presented James P. Dillon, Jr. with a law license in 1986. The Board of Bar Overseers found James guilty of the following misconduct. Failed to comply with Bar Counsel’s subpoena (Up Yours, said James!) Failed to provide competent representation (Dufus) Failed to act with due diligence (slacker) In one matter, a client consulted James about her ex-husband’s alleged failure to abide by a settlement agreement that he was to pay their son’s tuition for his senior year at the school where he was enrolled. The client provided James with a copy of the divorce settlement. James agreed to file a complaint for contempt and requested $3,500 for his services, which the client paid. The divorce agreement called for the Family Court’s intervention if the parties failed to agree on a year-to-year basis to have the son educated in a private school. However, due to James’ negligence he never reviewed the agreement sufficiently to understand that the parties were required to present disputes over tuition payment to the court. Subsequently, James contacted the ex-husband to tell him he represented the wife and asked that he pay the son’s school tuition for his senior year. The ex-husband responded that he was not financially able to do so. James then filed a complaint for contempt with the family court alleging the ex-husband had been ordered “to pay the tuition for the minor child at his private school” and had violated the order by failing to pay the tuition for the child at his private school. Obviously, James the Moron didn’t have a legal basis for bringing the contempt complaint. The ex-husband’s attorney filed a motion to dismiss the contempt motion. At a hearing on the motion, James continued to argue in support of the contempt motion, which James never responded to and did not tell his client that he was going to so act. At the hearing, the trial court summarily dismissed James’ sham contempt motion. At the time he was fired, James had not earned the entire $3,500 retainer and owed his client at least $530. The client demanded that James return her entire file and provide her with an itemized bill. James responded to the request for an itemized bill and admitted he owed the client $530, but he failed to timely refund the unearned fees. As a consequence of his misconduct, the apologists for Attorney Misfits sitting on the Board of Overseers punished James by gifting him with a complimentary reprimand. As we speak (ca. February 2013) James practices at 258 Main Street in Buzzards Bay, Massachusetts.
