Nothing is
“solid work” as a 65-year-old lawyer, Mr Thomas Lowe, had his license
indefinitely suspended when it came to light that he had been sleeping with a
woman he represented in
a divorce trial. And he was billing her for the time they were having sex. Come
for the legal services, stay for the prostitution?
One also has to wonder, is this the first time Lowe
did this? Probably not, right? It's probably just the first time he got caught.
It all started the day Lowe asked client about her sexual relationship with her
husband, commented on her appearance and asked if she was interested in sex
with him.
The following month, they began an affair that lasted until March. At various points, Lowe billed the woman for legal services on the dates of their sexual encounters, coding the time as meetings or drafting memos.

In March, after several arguments with the woman about the affair and his own
marriage, Lowe said he was breaking things off. Two days later, he said he was
withdrawing as her attorney.
That day, the woman, who was considered vulnerable because of past abuse and
mental health treatment, tried to kill herself. While hospitalized, she
disclosed the affair.
So, that didn't go well.
