NO JUSTICE IN TEXAS
To all Texans, Americans and anybody else in the WHOLE WORLD that cannot stand corruption, please read this piece. This is non-fiction.
The State Bar of Texas AND Texas politicians are the most corrupt in the US. The State Bar of Texas refuses to discipline attorneys who commit serious crimes such as forgery and insurance fraud. Texas politicians including Governor Rick Perry refuse to interfere, although by law they can force the State Bar to uphold Texas law. Dishonest attorneys run amok and unfazed in Texas practicing with clean records and defrauding their clients, because they know nothing will happen to them. I was told the State Bar of Texas is like a country club for attorneys, and it turned out to be true.
I was defrauded by attorney Ilene Smoger of Dallas, TX. Twice, thanks to the corruption at the State Bar of Texas. I hired Ms. Smoger to be my attorney after a car accident. I went to see a chiropractic clinic, Moses Chiropractic Clinic, and Lee Moses referred me to his very good friend attorney Ilene Smoger. After I hired her, they engaged in insurance fraud by double-billing both my car and health insurance for the same services. When the first insurance check arrived, she told me to endorse it to the chiropractors. The check was already at their clinic. That is fraud. That check was to cover my medical bills. Later I found out this information, and that because of the amount involved and the severity of the crime - insurance fraud - by law Ms. Smoger should be disbarred and sent to jail. At the time in Texas, insurance fraud involving an amount between $2,000.00 and $10,000 was called a state-jail felony and carried jail time, up to a year. I filed a complaint with the State bar against Ms. Smoger. We had a hearing. I brought all the evidence showing she defrauded me and committed insurance fraud. The investigative panel stated in clear terms she took my money. Ms. Smoger left the hearing in tears. Then the State Bar of Texas sent me a letter saying Ms. Smoger didn’t do anything wrong. According to the State Bar of Texas, an attorney who defrauds her client and commits insurance fraud and serious crimes that deserve disbarment and prison time IS NOT DOING ANYTHING WRONG. I was forced to keep her as one of my attorneys although she was no longer representing me.
The next insurance check Ms. Smoger defrauded me was for a much larger amount. This time, the attorneys simply FORGED my signature on the back of the check and cashed it. They kept all the money. Again, the State Bar of Texas AND Texas politicians, most notably Senator Florence Shapiro, don’t think that attorneys who forge their clients’ signatures on the back of insurance checks, cash those checks and keep all the money, are doing anything wrong.
Ms. Ilene Smoger continues to practice law in Dallas, TX with a clean record. She used to be the President of the North Dallas Bar Association. Her firm also has offices in California.
What does it take for an attorney to be disbarred in Texas? If committing serious crimes and felonies is not enough to get an attorney disbarred, then what? The public cannot trust a State Bar and the politicians that run that State when those politicians and State Bar refuse to uphold the law. Are attorneys in Texas above the law? Is it true that the State Bar of Texas is nothing but a country club for lawyers and not being disciplined and/or disbarred and/or sent to jail for their crimes is one of the membership benefits? If that is the case, then nobody is safe to hire an attorney in Texas.
The State Bar of Texas recently sent a letter to Pakistan to demand they uphold the law. I think it is extremely hypocritical for the State Bar of Texas to write to anybody else in the world demanding they uphold their laws when the State Bar of Texas and Texas politicians refuse to uphold Texas law. Perhaps the Pakistani government could send a letter to the State Bar of Texas, another one to Governor Rick Perry, and a third one to a previous Texas governor who now sits on the White House as President of the United States of America, and demand that the State bar of Texas and Texas politicians uphold Texas law.
I have a blog in which I’m posting all the materials about this case. I already posted copies of both insurance checks attorney Ilene Smoger defrauded me. The blog is http://nojusticeintexas.blogspot.com . I also have a you tube blog, but for the moment I don’t have a video. Important links are www.texasbar.com where you can see the Texas Rules of Disciplinary Procedure and Texas Disciplinary Rules of Professional Conduct. First look in the section to the left that says Client Assistance & Grievance. Click there and at the bottom of the page you’ll see pdf documents of the Rules.
The new Executive Director of the State Bar of Texas is Gib Walton. You may want to email him and ask why is that the State Bar of Texas refuses to discipline attorneys who commit insurance fraud and forgery. You may email Governor Rick Perry and Senator Florence Shapiro as well with that question. Be advised that Senator Florence Shapiro is married to attorney Howard Shapiro and she herself refuses to uphold the law.
The State Bar of Texas is running a contest on you tube about justice for Texans. Ironic, to say the least, because there is no justice in Texas.

To call Texas a Banana Republic is offensive to Banana Republics all over the world, because they are not as corrupt as Texas.
This case is not only about me. It’s about everybody who will ever see an attorney and trust that a clean record for an attorney means that attorney is honest, and not simply well-connected.
Thank you.
