TIPTON COUNTY LAWYER CENSURED
On November 2, 2011, Jewel Guy Boozer, an attorney licensed to practice law in Tennessee, received
a Public Censure from the Board of Professional Responsibility of the Tennessee Supreme Court.
Mr. Boozer agreed to represent his client in seeking compensation for the clientâs hearing loss from
his prior employer. Mr. Boozer failed to pursue the matter, failed to communicate with his client, and failed
to return the clientâs documents. Additionally, Mr. Boozer failed to respond to the Boardâs correspondence
concerning his clientâs allegations of misconduct.
By the aforementioned acts, Jewel Guy Boozer has violated Rules of Professional Conduct 1.3
(diligence), 1.4 (communication), 1.16 (terminating representation), and 8.1(b) (responding to disciplinary
authority) 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.
