SHELBY COUNTY LAWYER TEMPORARILY SUSPENDED
On September 27, 2023, the Supreme Court of Tennessee temporarily suspended Monica Aislynn
Timmerman from the practice of law upon finding that Ms. Timmerman is substantially non-compliant with a
Tennessee Lawyer Assistance Program and poses a threat of substantial harm to the public. Section 12.3 of
Supreme Court Rule 9 provides for the immediate temporary suspension of an attorneyâs license to practice law
in cases where the attorney is substantially non-compliant with a Tennessee Lawyers Assistant Program
monitoring agreement and/or poses a threat of substantial harm to the public.
Ms. Timmerman is immediately precluded from accepting any new cases, and she must cease
representing existing clients by October 27, 2023. After October 27, 2023, Ms. Timmerman shall not use any
indicia of lawyer, legal assistant, or law clerk nor maintain a presence wherein the practice of law is conducted.
Ms. Timmerman 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 and is required to deliver to all
clients any papers or property to which they are entitled.
Ms. Timmerman 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.
Timmerman may, for good cause, request dissolution or modification of the suspension by petition to the
Supreme Court.
