We are pleased to announce that Jon Newman was appointed by Justice Luckert to serve a 3 year term on the Client Protection Fund Commission.
The fund was created to offer compensation to clients who suffer economic loss as a result of dishonest actions by an active Kansas-licensed lawyer. Those actions must occur during the course of a lawyer-client relationship and covers most cases in which lawyers have taken for their own use, or misappropriated, clients' money or other property entrusted to them.
