The Supreme Court of Ohio today imposed an indefinite suspension against the law license of Akron attorney Michelle A. Smithern for misappropriating more than $100,000 from her law firm by depositing retainer fees she received from 32 clients into her own personal bank account rather than the firm’s accounts. Smithern has been under an interim license suspension since February 2009, when the Court was notified of her conviction on a felony theft charge.
Attorney Paul F. Adamson
