The best way to describe John Berman is his review and suspension by the Colorado Supreme Court Attorney Regulation Committee:



Colorado Supreme Court No. 11PDJ078. People v. Berman. 05/11/2012. Attorney Suspended. The PDJ approved a Conditional Admission of Misconduct submitted by the parties and suspended John A. Berman, attorney registration number 06695, for nine months, all stayed pending the successful completion of a two-year period of probation with conditions. The suspension was effective May 11, 2012. Berman represented a female client in a bankruptcy matter. Berman’s client was dissolving her marriage, and the bankruptcy filing needed to be completed before her divorce could be finalized. During this representation, Berman touched his client without her consent or permission in a manner she found offensive. This action, coupled with a comment Berman made about the client’s appearance, caused her emotional discomfort and violated her trust in Berman as her attorney. His misconduct constituted grounds for the imposition of discipline pursuant to CRCP 251.5, and violated Colo. RPC 8.4(h).
