The Florida Supreme Court in recent court orders disciplined 10 attorneys, disbarring one, revoking the licenses of one, suspending six, and reprimanding two. One attorney was ordered to pay restitution.
Ronald Cordon, 335 N.W. 54th St., Miami, suspended for one year effective 30 days following a March 16 court order. (Admitted to practice: 1990) Cordon represented a client who sought a loan modification of his property that was under foreclosure proceedings. Cordon created a corporation where his mother was the president and his wife the treasurer, to purchase the client’s property but failed to inform the client that his family had a pecuniary interest in the corporation. The client did not have independent counsel. The corporation then leased the property back to the client with an option to purchase the property but when client fell behind on payments, Cordon’s law firm represented the corporation in an eviction suit against the client.
