A lawyer who practices in Portland, Oregon, has received a five-year suspension for firing six bullets into the law office of a colleague, narrowly missing the law firm manager who was in the building.
The Oregon Supreme Court suspended lawyer Erik Graeff of Vancouver, Washington, in an April 22 opinion, report the Oregonian, Law360 and the Legal Profession Blog.
Graeff has been disbarred in Washington, but the Oregon Supreme Court instead opted for its toughest suspension. The court cited several mitigating factors supporting suspension, rather than disbarment. They included Graeff’s personal circumstances, his otherwise clear disciplinary record, his punishment for the crime, and his payment to the insurance company for the damage caused to the law office.
