DAVIDSON COUNTY LAWYER CENSURED
On January 10, 2022, Michael Lloyd Freeman, an attorney licensed to practice law in Tennessee,
received a Public Censure from the Supreme Court of Tennessee and was ordered to pay the disciplinary
expenses and costs incurred by the Board of Professional Responsibility.
Mr. Freeman failed to reasonably respond to his clientâs request for information about the status of his
criminal case and failed to diligently represent his client over a period of approximately two years. Mr.
Freeman executed and filed a Conditional Guilty Plea admitting his conduct violated Rules of Professional
Conduct 1.3 (diligence) and 1.4 (communication).
A Public Censure is a rebuke and warning to the attorney, but it does not affect the attorneyâs ability to
practice law.
