The Respondent Lawyer was found to have engaged in unsatisfactory professional conduct on three grounds: failing to disclose a potential conflict of interest, sending correspondence that exceeded his legitimate entitlements and attempted to mislead and intimidate the complainant, and communicating in a rude, dismissive and inflammatory manner. Although the correspondence 'attempted to mislead,' the tribunal made no express finding of dishonesty. No specific sanction is set out in the provided text.
