I made a lot of enemies on the bench. I am probably the most honest lawyer you will ever talk to.

— Disbarred Florida attorney Jeff Norkin, reflecting on the reasons for his disbarment. The Florida Supreme Court characterized his behavior as “defiant and contemptuous,” and then there was the small matter of practicing law while his license was suspended. Norkin has vowed to appeal the disbarment and if that doesn’t work, he’s going to make like a lawyer and sue. “I swear to you, people will know,” Norkin said. “I don’t even care if it costs me my life, people will know what they did to me. Because my life is worthless now.”
