In re Bahrmasel, Steven J., 2018PR00098
Disposition Disbarment On Consent
Effective Date of Disposition 09/16/2019
End Date of Disposition No disposition end date scheduled at this time. Discipline continues until further order of the Court.
Definition of Disposition Disbarment on consent is imposed by the Supreme Court based upon the lawyer's filing of a motion to strike his or her name from the roll of attorneys in face of disciplinary charges that are set forth in the Administrator's Statement of Charges. The disbarred lawyer is not authorized to practice law during the period of the disbarment on consent and may not return to the practice of law unless and until the lawyer has demonstrated his or her rehabilitation, good character, and current knowledge of the law in a subsequent reinstatement case, which may not be filed until three years after the effective date of the disbarment on consent.
Case Summary Mr. Bahrmasel, who was licensed in 1971, was disbarred on consent for engaging in the unauthorized practice of law in at least ten client matters after the effective date of a two-year suspension for neglect and the mishandling of client funds. During his suspension, Mr. Bahrmasel negotiated settlements with opposing counsel, filed orders utilizing other attorneys’ names and attorney numbers, accepted legal fees, and made disbursements from a purported client funds account.

Effective Date of Disposition 01/10/2014
End Date of Disposition 05/13/2016 Condition(s) satisfied.

The lawyer is not authorized to practice law during the period of the suspension.
Case Summary Mr. Bahrmasel, who was licensed in 1971, was suspended for two years and until he successfully completes the ARDC Professionalism Seminar. He neglected three client matters, was not candid to clients in two of those matters, converted approximately $12,000 in an estate matter, and was not truthful to another attorney during the course of the estate matter. The suspension is effective on December 11, 2013.
