I have really had a heavy heart after leaving this company. The attorneys are nothing short for crooks. I have first hand knowledge of their client billings, and they are ..."fluffed" to say the least. If a paralegal is obtaining information, doing research for, etc. the attorneys (yes, multiple) will bill as themselves, which yeld a much higher payment. The turnover is almost laughable. They can't retain employees as their morals are called into play, and most would choose to sleep well at night than stoop down to their level. I have personally witnessed blatant lies to the IRS on behalf of clients, and laundering money. I have broken my chains, and I still can't sleep at night knowing what I've done, and what they continue to do. And I came across this gem, which I know Travis hoped would be buried for good: PUBLIC REPRIMAND On June 30, 2006, the Chair of the Ethics and Discipline Committee of the Utah Supreme Court entered an Order of Discipline: Public Reprimand against Travis Bowen for violation of Rules 1.
5(a) (Fees), 1.7(b) (Conflict of Interest: General Rule), 7.1(a) (Communications Concerning a Lawyer’s Services), 7.5(a) (Firm Names and Letterheads), 7.5(d) (Firms Names and Letterhead), 8.1(b) (Bar Admission and Disciplinary Matters), and 8.4(a) (Misconduct) of the Rules of Professional Conduct. In summary: Mr. Bowen charged his client an excessive fee in trade for services. The fee was excessive considering the time, labor, and skill required to provide legal services and in light of the fees typically charged for similar services in the community. Mr. Bowen instructed his staff to increase his standard legal fee in order to pay for the furniture sold to his firm by the client. Mr. Bowen recommended certain life insurance products without informing his clients of his or his firm’s financial interest in the profits to be gained if the clients purchased those products. Mr. Bowen’s letterhead was misleading as he identified other office locations on the letterhead when he did not have offices in those locations. Mr. Bowen’s letterhead also listed an “of counsel” relationship with another attorney when he did not have such a relationship. Mr. Bowen failed to provide certain documents requested by the Office of Professional Conduct, which impeded the disciplinary process PLEASE, I know their office will threaten you to take this post down, tell you this is fabricated, or threaten you with a lawsuit, but I beg you to look into this company. Open their books. Audit their IRS reporting. Look over their customer bills. You'll find discrepancies and it's ugly. Travis, please don't proclaim to be LDS, and the savior to your employees. You are a monster. You could do good, instead you wish to line your pockets with dirty money. Shame on you. And you've brought shame to you family and prosperity. No way can answer that you've been honest in your dealings with your fellow man. Disgusting. - Salt Lake City, Utah
