Suspended by State Bar, TCM Law Group, Thomas Michaelides Las Vegas, is also sued again for legal malpractice and paralegal arrested for unauthorized practice of law. Attorney Thomas Michaelides represents a true Las Vegas fraud, as he took money and never performed the work, and is at best shady. Thomas Michaelides was suspended for allowing his paralegal doing legal work. The paralegal, Matthew Katz , was arrested for Unauthorized Practice of Law, 205.390 - Obtaining Signature by False Pretense, 205.0832 - Theft by False Pretense Over $3500 by Nye County Sheriff. See Sheriff Press Release here.
Photo of Matthew Katz, who has a law degree, is attached to this post since no photo of Thomas Michelides is not available. Thomas Michaelides, and his other paralegal Natasha Smith were made aware of Matthew Katz' illegal conduct but ignored it. Further, Thomas Michaelides has refused to provide the client file to the client, and failed to do so for over a year per documented letters. This firm is about pure fraud as it took money, and did not perform services (I akin this as paying for a car online, but a car never shows up in your driveway!).
The Nevada Supreme Court has suspended Thomas Michaelides repeated times. The last time in 2017, the Nevada Supreme Court said in In re Michaelides (Nev. 2017) 405 P.3d 99,
“The profession was harmed because Michaelides' breach of his duties regarding non-lawyer assistants, which allowed his paralegal to engage in the unauthorized practice of law, was detrimental to the integrity and standing of the bar. The record supports four aggravating circumstances (prior disciplinary offenses, pattern of misconduct, multiple offenses, and substantial experience in the practice of law) and two mitigating circumstances (cooperative attitude toward proceedings and remorse.”
Thomas Michaelides , Las Vegas, has a history of scamming clients. In fact he is being sued again for legal malpractice in Las Vegas. I attached a screen shot of the docket. Do not fall victim to his law practice, or the Island of Legal Misfits his law practice is known for.
