SULLIVAN COUNTY LAWYER CENSURED
On April 27, 2011, Steven Carl Frazier, an attorney licensed to practice law in Tennessee, received a
Public Censure from the Board of Professional Responsibility of the Tennessee Supreme Court.
Mr. Frazier was retained in July, 2008, to file a complaint for breach of contract related to a lease
purchase agreement of real property. He failed to reasonably communicate with his clients, failed to prepare a
complaint for his clients, failed to communicate with opposing counsel and failed to take action on his clientsâ
behalf. Mr. Frazier has prior public discipline of a similar nature.
By the aforementioned acts, Steven Carl Frazier has violated Rules of Professional Conduct 1.3
(diligence), 1.4 (communication with client), and 8.4(a) (violation of Rules of Professional Conduct) and (d)
(conduct prejudicial to administration of justice) 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.
