MORGAN COUNTY LAWYER CENSURED
On February 12, 2015, Andrew Nathan Hall, an attorney licensed to practice law in Tennessee, received
a Public Censure from the Board of Professional Responsibility of the Tennessee Supreme Court.
Mr. Hall was retained to represent clients in bankruptcy proceedings. They paid a total of over $2,400
in attorneyâs fees and ï¬ling fees. However, for over a year, Mr. Hall took no action in the case. When the
clients called Mr. Hallâs ofï¬ce, they were repeatedly told the bankruptcy petition would be ï¬led shortly, but
nothing was done until the clients ï¬led a disciplinary complaint against Mr. Hall.
By these acts, Andrew Nathan Hall has violated Rule of Professional Conduct l.l (competence), 1.3
(diligence), 1.4 (communication), 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.
