SHELBY COUNTY LAWYER TEMPORARILY SUSPENDED
On April 4, 2024, the Supreme Court of Tennessee temporarily suspended Sheila L. Robinson-Beasley
from the practice of law upon finding that Ms. Robinson-Beasley misappropriated funds and property for her
personal use and poses a threat of substantial harm to the public. Section 12.3 of Supreme Court Rule 9
provides for the immediate summary suspension of an attorney who misappropriates funds for the attorneyâs
own use and poses a threat of substantial harm to the public.
Ms. Robinson-Beasley is immediately precluded from accepting any new cases, and she must cease
representing existing clients by May 4, 2024 (30 days after suspension). After May 4, 2024, Ms. Robinson-
Beasley shall not use any indicia of lawyer, legal assistant, or law clerk nor maintain a presence where the
practice of law is conducted.
Ms. Robinson-Beasley must notify all clients being represented in pending matters, as well as co-
counsel and opposing counsel of the Supreme Courtâs Order suspending her law license. Ms. Robinson-
Beasley is required to deliver to all clients any papers or property to which they are entitled.
Ms. Robinson-Beasley must comply with the requirements of Tennessee Supreme Court Rule 9,
Sections 28 and 12.3(d), regarding the obligations and responsibilities of temporarily suspended attorneys and
the procedure for reinstatement.
This suspension remains in effect until dissolution or modification by the Supreme Court. Ms.
Robinson-Beasley may for good cause request dissolution or modification of the suspension by petition to the
Supreme Court.
