: Breaking Legal NewsSan Francisco sues immigration law firm
By (Breaking Legal News)
The city of San Francisco is accusing a former lawyer of providing shoddy representation to clients with immigration problems even after giving up his license to practice law.
City Attorney Dennis Herrera filed a lawsuit Wednesday in San Francisco Superior Court seeking to shutter the Immigration Practice Group, a firm allegedly controlled by Martin Guajardo.
Guajardo gave up his law license in 2008 after he was accused of charging illegally high fees and failing to provide competent representation.
The lawsuit alleges that Guajardo nevertheless opened the law office and hired attorney Christopher Stender to act as a "front." They are accused of providing poor legal counsel resulting in the deportation of clients.
Neither Guajardo nor Stender immediately returned a phone call to the firm.
