In re Maag, Thomas Gordon, 2023PR00054
Disposition Suspension for a specified period of time and until further order of the Court
Effective Date of Disposition 09/24/2026
End Date of Disposition
Definition of Disposition A suspension until further order of the Court reflects a determination that the lawyer has engaged in misconduct and that the misconduct warrants an interruption of the lawyer's authority to practice law during the suspension period, which is a fixed period of time identified in the Supreme Court's order and until the lawyer has demonstrated rehabilitation, good character, and current knowledge of the law in a subsequent reinstatement case. The lawyer is not authorized to practice law during the period of the suspension.
Case Summary Mr. Maag, who was licensed to practice law in Illinois in 2000, was suspended for two years and until further order of the Court. Mr. Maag did not diligently represent a married couple in three separate claims, did not reasonably communicate with them about the status of those cases or return their files to them after being discharged, and engaged in dishonesty by fabricating materials to make it appear that his effort to return the files to them had been damaged by postal authorities. He also made a false statement during the disciplinary investigation and refused to comply with an investigative subpoena. A suspension until further order of the Court is an indefinite suspension that requires the suspended lawyer to petition for reinstatement after the fixed period of suspension ends. Reinstatement is not automatic and must be allowed by the Supreme Court of Illinois following a hearing before the ARDC Hearing Board.

Case Summary Mr. Maag, who was licensed in 2000, was suspended for sixty days.
