Navigation January 1, 2026, Disciplinary Actions
The Florida Supreme Court in recent court orders disciplined 11 attorneys, disbarring two, suspending six, and reprimanding three.
Aram Caldarera Bloom, 10800 Biscayne Blvd., Suite 600, Miami, suspended for three years effective immediately following a December 4 court order. (Admitted to Practice: 2009) Bloom was held in contempt for failing to submit a sworn affidavit pursuant to Rule 3-5.1(h) attesting to notifying clients, opposing counsel and tribunals of his suspension. The three-year suspension is effective immediately as Bloom was previously suspended. (Case No. SC2025-1499)
Dawn Marie Calache, 3959 South Nova Road Suite 2, Port Orange, public reprimand by publication, scheduling of a Diversion/Discipline Consultation Service review within 30 days of the court’s order, completion of Ethics School within six months of the court’s order, restitution of legal fees to two former clients within 30 days of the entry of the order, and payment of The Florida Bar’s disciplinary costs. Sanction is effective immediately following a December 23 order. (Admitted to Practice: 2016) Calache expanded her law practice to include immigration services but failed to ensure that immigration clients received sound legal advice and adequate legal services when she failed to supervise her nonlawyer assistant or communicate adequately with her clients. Calache’s nonlawyer assistant accepted legal fees and costs for the purposes of preparing applications for work visas, did not submit the applications and necessary documents to the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services and in at least one instance, cashed a client’s money order in her own name. Calache attempted to mitigate the harm to clients by retaining another lawyer to review the immigration files and assist the clients with pending matters. (Case No. SC2025-1988)
