TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) - A lawyer who let a female client work
off her fee through sex has been disbarred by the Florida Supreme
Court.
The justices Thursday cited James Harvey Tipler's guilty plea to
solicitation and prostitution as one of several instances of
professional misconduct.
Tipler admitted having sex with his 18-year-old client and
another woman in exchange for credits toward her $2,300 fee for
handling a Bay County assault case, the justices wrote.
He agreed to take off $200 every time he had sex with her and
$400 when she arranged sex with another woman.
The justices also found in other cases he altered evidence,
caused a witness to give false testimony, charged excessive fees
and stole clients' money.

I thought all the lawyers traded sex for service. As for a man client, go through the paralegal. They give the best sex.

Did he claim this pro boneo or as income? Will she have to pay any taxes for subcontracting out some of the payment options or does third party girl laws apply?
