The decision, handed down on February 8, 1994, came after a lengthy investigation that resulted in Heller's "substantial admissions of professional misconduct."
Heller was admitted to the practice of law in New York in 1969. The case against him was brought in 1993 by the state's Judicial Department when he was charged with an astounding 38 violations of department rules regarding conduct.

The court found "a pattern of misconduct involving misrepresentation, deceit, abusive treatment of clients, fee gouging, neglect and willful failure to return unearned retainers to his clients."
The violations occurred between 1989 and 1992 and involved 12 separate clients, the document asserts.
Heller was ultimately found guilty of 18 violations, and was suspended from 1994 to 1999.

Two greedy bastards. The lawyer has a habit of getting his clients to liquidate their money by any means to assure he gets paid. Jon Gosslin has replaced Kayne West has America's Number One Assclown. I think his reign will be a long one

Jon is really short and his attorney barely comes up to Jon's chin. Do you think this little guy has a Napoleon complex?

Jon is a TOTAL douche bag! You just know this idiot hired this lawyer at the suggestion of his new BFF Michael Lohan!

Jon said recently that he banks all his money-nothing going to the kids, which means that Kate solely provides for the kids. Jon is terrible for taking their funds.

She said that Jon took all the money just before the divorce was filed, that could be why she filed for divorce so quickly. The money put back, she also took out the money but ended up putting it back.

Watched Today show-Jon is a completely terrible person in all of this, and I don't say that lightly. All the actions these past months, I fully and completely support Kate and the kids.
