The DOJ says David Speckman arranged for two clients to sell their homes to a company owned by his wife
A Chula Vista bankruptcy attorney has been barred from representing San Diego County clients in bankruptcy cases after officials say he arranged for two clients to sell their homes to a company owned by his wife, the Department of Justice announced Tuesday. The DOJ says David Speckman drafted agreements for a pair of debtor clients to sell their homes to Prado Investments LLC without seeking court authorization.
He also didn't disclose information connecting his clients to Prado, including in one case where the Justice Department says he didn't list his client's debt to Prado or that Prado was the junior lienholder on the debtor's home. In February, a stipulated judgment was entered permanently prohibiting him from representing clients in bankruptcy cases in the Southern District of California.
