Brent J. McIntosh, of Cleveland, was publicly censured Friday by the Tennessee Supreme Court.
The Board of Professional Responsibility filed a Petition for Discipline against Mr. McIntosh pursuant to Rule 9, Rules of the Supreme Court. A hearing panel determined that, while representing a client, Mr. McIntosh threatened to present a criminal charge against an unrepresented person for the purpose of obtaining an advantage in a civil matter.
Mr. McIntosh’s actions violated Rules of Professional Conduct 4.4(a) (2), Respect for the Rights of Third Persons; and 8.4(a), Misconduct.
For these violations, the Tennessee Supreme Court publicly censured Mr. McIntosh. A public censure is a rebuke and warning to the attorney, but does not affect the attorney’s ability to practice law.

It happens all the time in guardianship.
I am a wife of a man taken over by a guardianship and for the past 3 years I have been theatened, harassed, humiliated in court and everywhere else by guardianship attorneys, judges and the guardian and they have took all the funds from my husband and myself so I don't have the funds to hire an Attorney to defend myself!! This is in Florida and the laws are for the guardianship and they use these laws to benefit these crooks!!
Fight alone; fail alone!
