Lon B. Isaacson, 2020 T. C. Memo. 17, filed 1/23/20, brings forcefully to mind Abraham Lincoln’s words: “A moral tone ought to be infused into the profession which should drive such men out of it.”

I’ll spare you an extensive dissection of the overreaching, lies, fraud and other disbarable offenses. You can read all 56 (count ‘em, 56) pages of ex-Ch J L Paige (“Iron Fist”) Marvel’s prose. When I saw a 60% of recovery contingent fee charged to victims of childhood sexual abuse, which he concealed, and how he diverted the remainder to his own use, lying all the while, it was enough for me.

The petitioner also practiced in the field of tax fraud defense. He apparently learned nothing from the experience.

Honest Abe got it right.
