DAVIDSON COUNTY LAWYER CENSURED

On April 4, 2017, Robin Jeffrey Gordon, an attorney licensed to practice law in Tennessee, received a
Public Censure from the Board of Professional Responsibility of the Tennessee Supreme Court.

Mr. Gordon’s law firm was hired to represent a client in modifying a parenting plan in April 2013. On
September 30, 2014, an associate at Mr. Gordon’s firm handling the matter left employment after filing the
agreed parenting plan. In mid-November 2014, the legal assistant discovered there was a problem with the
agreed order. Mr. Gordon revised the parenting plan and refiled the proposed agreed order on December 18,
2014, but failed to file a child support worksheet. On January 28, 2015, Mr. Gordon filed a child support
worksheet, but did not send it to the judge’s chambers. The court ultimately signed the agreed order on April
23, 2015. Mr. Gordon failed to ensure that the proposed agreed order was timely signed by the judge.

By these acts, Mr. Gordon has violated Rule 1.3 (diligence) 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 attorney’s ability to
practice law.
