OPEN LETTER REGARDING THE STATE BAR’S THOMAS V. GIRARDI DISCLOSURE

Today, the State Bar of California is releasing information about disciplinary matters that were

opened and closed over the past 40 years involving now-disbarred attorney Thomas V. Girardi.

The handling of the Girardi matters brought to light serious failures in the State Bar’s attorney

discipline system, failures that have contributed to a lack of confidence in the State Bar’s ability

to carry out our core responsibility of protecting the public. There is no excuse being offered

here; Girardi caused irreparable harm to hundreds of his clients, and the State Bar could have

done more to protect the public. We can never allow something like this to happen again.

I speak on behalf of the entire Board of Trustees when I say that we want the public to know

that we take our statutory mission to protect the public seriously. As articulated in our new

strategic plan, our public protection mission is the guiding light for all that we do. Moreover,

meaningful change begins with a culture that values transparency and accountability, principles

the Board of Trustees and State Bar leadership hold central in our decision-making. In this spirit,

and pursuant to a discretionary determination made by the Chief Trial Counsel and me, the

State Bar is now releasing as much information about the Girardi matters as we believe is

allowed under the law.

THE GIRARDI DISCLOSURE – THE NUMBERS

Over the past 40 years, the State Bar opened 205 disciplinary matters about Girardi. Of the 205

matters, approximately 120 involved allegations relating to client trust account violations. The

remaining disciplinary matters involved various allegations ranging from failure to communicate

with clients to failure to perform, as well as misrepresentations to courts and clients, among

others. Of these 205 disciplinary matters, the State Bar received 69 complaints on or after

December 18, 2020, when a petition was filed to force Girardi’s law firm into bankruptcy.

Nearly 60 of those recent complaints alleged client trust account violations.

Three of the 205 disciplinary matters resulted in Girardi’s disbarment earlier this year. An

additional 64 matters were thereafter closed due to his disbarment—after a disbarment, there

is no further disciplinary action the State Bar can take. Before his disbarment, Girardi was never

publicly disciplined by the State Bar. Thirteen other matters were previously resolved through

non-public measures at the investigation, prefiling, or post filing stages.

The remaining 125 matters were handled as follows:

• 60 complaints, or 48 percent, were closed at intake;

• Another 61 complaints, or just under 49 percent, were closed after investigation;

and

• 4 complaints, or just over 3 percent, were closed at the prefiling stage.

The full disclosure accompanied by explanatory information is attached.

THE STATE BAR’S RESPONSE

We recognize that the Girardi situation has undermined the public’s trust in the State Bar as an

institution. In response, the State Bar has initiated a number of efforts (highlighted below) and

outlined bold goals for the attorney discipline system. We made significant progress on many

fronts.

BAR-INITIATED INVESTIGATIONS OF GIRARDI MATTERS

The State Bar began the process of righting the wrongs brought to light by the Girardi matters

in 2021, when we conducted an audit of all closed disciplinary matters concerning Girardi. That

was followed by the launch of a comprehensive investigation (still ongoing), into prior actions

taken by any staff or other State Bar affiliated persons, to determine whether the State Bar’s

handling of matters involving Girardi was affected by his connections to, or relationships or

influence with these individuals. As I have said previously about this investigation, we are

pursuing the facts as vigorously as possible under the law and will go where the evidence leads

us. We will share more information about both the audit and the investigation when the latter

is completed.

GIRARDI WAS DISBARRED AND THE STATE BAR ACCELERATED CLIENT SECURITY FUND

PAYMENTS

The Chief Trial Counsel sought disbarment of Girardi in 2021; following a default, Girardi was

disbarred by the Supreme Court in June 2022. Also in 2021, even before Girardi was disbarred,

the State Bar’s Client Security Fund began making payments to his victims on an accelerated

basis.

Non-public measures may include non-public private reprovals, agreements in lieu of discipline, admonitions,

warning letters, or directional letters.

REFORMS TO ATTORNEY DISCIPLINE SYSTEM, INCLUDING ESTABLISHING THE NEW CLIENT

TRUST ACCOUNT PROTECTION PROGRAM

Under the Board’s leadership, the State Bar has developed and implemented much-needed

reforms to the attorney discipline system. We will continue to pursue these efforts to ensure

the State Bar fulfills our mission to protect the public.

Among the important steps we have taken thus far is the creation of the new Client Trust

Account Protection Program, which was approved by the California Supreme Court last month.

This program will be in effect at the commencement of the 2023 annual license renewal cycle.

The program will empower the State Bar—for the first time—to require licensed attorneys to

report information about all of their client trust accounts annually, as well as provide the State

Bar with new tools to enhance accountability and oversight of client trust accounts and deter

misconduct. The Program includes resources and tools to assist licensees in complying with the

new requirements.

Directly related to some of the issues reflected in the present disclosure, the State Bar also has

undertaken the following:

New Tools and Policies to Identify and Address Patterns of Complaints

• Developed an automated process for identifying patterns of prior complaints at intake

and implemented a new policy so that when new complaints are received about an

attorney, the State Bar can identify previous complaints against that attorney and

consider those previous complaints in determining how to proceed; and

• Implemented a new policy that cases resulting from small bank overdrafts may not be

closed without investigation if the attorney has a pending or prior (within the last two

years) overdraft or client trust account-related complaint.

Restrictions on the Use of Nonpublic Measures

• Revised our policies to provide clearer guidance and limits on the use of nonpublic

measures to close cases.

The Board of Trustees also appointed George S. Cardona, a former federal prosecutor, as the

State Bar’s Chief Trial Counsel, who was confirmed by the Senate earlier this year —the first

such confirmation in ten years. The new leadership team was further bolstered by the hiring of

Ellin Davtyan as the State Bar’s new general counsel.

Today’s disclosure is another step forward in advancing our commitment to protect the public

with greater impact, transparency, and urgency. The State Bar is committed to doing everything

in our power to prevent something like this from happening again.

On behalf of the entire Board, I’d like to express our appreciation to all who have reached out with

their thoughts, concerns, and complaints. We hear you, loud and clear. Your experiences serve as a

sober reminder of the importance of our efforts to do better. We are committed to doing so, to

fulfill our mission of protecting the public.

Sincerely,

Ruben Duran

Chair, Board of Trustees

Explanatory Accompaniment to Business and Professions Code section 6086.1(b)(2)

Disclosure re Girardi Disciplinary Matters

This disclosure is being made pursuant to Business and Professions Code, Section 6086.1(b)(2),

which provides the Chair or Chief Trial Counsel with discretionary authority to waive

confidentiality of disciplinary investigations if warranted for the protection of the public.

• Under that law

, the public disclosure must be limited to “confirming the fact of an

investigation or proceeding, clarifying the procedural aspects and current status, and

defending the right of the licensee to a fair hearing.” The disclosure is limited to this

statutorily authorized information for all closed disciplinary matters involving Girardi.

Given his disbarment, there are no open disciplinary matters.

• The disclosure, in Attachment B, is organized by case number and includes the dates the

matter was opened and closed by the State Bar, the alleged violations, and the

disposition.

• A summary breakdown of the 205 disciplinary matters being disclosed is reflected in

Chart 1 below.

• To assist in understanding the disclosure, the reference sheet in Chart 2 below outlines

the reasons for closing a complaint as set out in the disclosure.

• Note that the disclosure includes references to historical State Bar processes that are no

longer in place, including review of complaint closure decisions by the Board of

Governors and a Complainant’s Grievance Panel.

Business and Professions Code section 6086.1 (b)(2).

The State Bar reserves its right to use different formats when exercising its discretion to waive confidentiality and

make disclosures of disciplinary investigations in the future.

CHART 2:

Explanation of Closing Reasons

Closing Reason

Explanation

Communication

Complaint alleging failure to communicate resolved with

letter requesting that Respondent (R), i.e., the attorney

who is the subject of the complaint, communicate with

complainant

CW Failure to Cooperate

Complainant or Complaining Witness (CW) has declined to

cooperate

Disbarment in Other Matter

Respondent was ordered disbarred in another matter

Discipline -- Disbarment

Matter proceeded to discipline and disbarment was

ordered

Closing Reason

Explanation

Duplicate

Office of Chief Trial Counsel (OCTC) has another matter

pending which involves substantially the same allegations

and in which OCTC is better positioned to pursue possible

disciplinary action

Error

Matter was erroneously opened

Insufficient Evidence

OCTC does not have and will not be able to gather

sufficient evidence to establish disciplinable violation by

clear and convincing evidence

Insufficient Facts

Facts alleged by complainant, even if assumed true, are

insufficient to establish a disciplinable violation and to

identify reasonable investigative steps likely to find facts

sufficient to establish a disciplinable violation

Lack of Jurisdiction

Absent any additional factual or procedural circumstances,

OCTC generally lacks jurisdiction to proceed when

complaints involve conduct by former licensees or by

current licensees acting in a judicial capacity: state court

judges, state court commissioners, federal court judges,

federal court magistrate-judges, administrative law judges,

judges pro-tem, court-appointed referees, or court-

appointed arbitrators

Matter Resolved Between CW

and R

Complainant and respondent have resolved issues that

gave rise to complaint

No Complaint Articulated

Complainant has failed to articulate any complaint

No Merit

Allegations in complaint are without merit

Non-Public Resolution

Closed with one of the following non-public resolutions:

private reproval prior to filing of public charges, agreement

in lieu of discipline, warning letter, admonition, or

directional letter.

Prosecutorial Discretion

Evidence is sufficient to proceed with a disciplinary action,

but matter is closed in exercise of prosecutorial discretion

Resource Letter

Respondent’s conduct is not disciplinable, but nonetheless

raises concerns about their actions warranting letter

advising regarding resources available to assist in

addressing concerns

Return of File Letter Sent

Complaint alleging failure to return file resolved with letter

requesting that Respondent return file to complainant

Rule of Limitation

Rule of procedure, rule 5.21; generally, absent tolling,

discipline proceedings based upon allegations of a

Closing Reason

Explanation

complainant must be prosecuted within five years of the

misconduct

Withdrawal

Complainant has withdrawn their complaint

In February 2022, OCTC issued a revised policy making clear that a complainant’s withdrawal

of their complaint (whether because the complainant has reached a resolution with the

respondent attorney or for other reasons) or failure to cooperate with the investigation is not

alone a basis for closure of a complaint. Rather, closure in such circumstances is appropriate

only if the complainant’s non-cooperation renders the evidence insufficient to proceed. The

same revised policy also eliminated prosecutorial discretion as a basis for closure without any

further action.
