Attorney was retained in October 2002 to act in the purchase of premises and paid $164,500.00 for fees and legal costs. The documentation, including the Agreement for Sale, referred to the wrong title volume. After four years the transaction remained incomplete and the error unrectified. The attorney did not appear despite due service. The Panel found beyond reasonable doubt a breach of Canon IV(r) for failing to deal with the client's business with due expedition, and ordered restitution of $120,000.00 with 6% interest plus $10,000.00 costs.
