WILLIAMSON COUNTY LAWYER CENSURED
On December 17, 2021, Jason Scott Mangrum, an attorney licensed to practice law in Tennessee, received
a Public Censure from the Board of Professional Responsibility of the Tennessee Supreme Court.
Mr. Mangrum agreed to represent a client in pursuing two collection matters and failed to take proper
action and expedite litigation in both cases, failed to respond to inquiries from his client, failed to keep his client
updated on the status of her cases and failed to respond or communicate to inquiries and directives from the client.
After the client terminated representation, Mr. Mangrum failed to turn over the client file to successor counsel for
over one month.
By these acts, Mr. Mangrum has violated Rules of Professional Conduct 1.3 (diligence), 1.4
(communication), 1.16 (declining or terminating representation), and 3.2 (expediting litigation), and is hereby
Publicly Censured for these violations.
A Public Censure is a rebuke and warning to the attorney, but it does not affect the attorneyâs ability to
practice law.
