Discipline Summary
Michigan attorney Evan J. Feldman (P73437) of Huntington Woods has been disbarred from the practice of law in Michigan, effective December 27, 2025.
The hearing panel also assessed costs totaling $1,879.24.
Applicable Court Rules
Attorney discipline proceedings are governed by Michigan Court Rules Chapter 9, including MCR 9.115 and MCR 9.120.
Underlying Conduct
The Attorney Grievance Administrator filed a Consolidated Formal Complaint and Notice of Filing of Judgment of Conviction pursuant to MCR 9.120(B)(3).
The notice advised that Feldman was convicted on December 7, 2023, of Disorderly Conduct, a misdemeanor in violation of MCL 750.167, in City of Troy v Evan J. Feldman, 52-4 Judicial District Court of Oakland County, Case No. 23-002717-OM.
The formal complaint further alleged that Feldman failed to report his conviction to the Attorney Grievance Commission and the Attorney Discipline Board within the required time period, in violation of MCR 9.120(A)(1).
The complaint also alleged that Feldman failed to answer a request for investigation.
Hearing Panel Findings
Following proceedings conducted under MCR 9.115 and MCR 9.120, Tri-County Hearing Panel #52 found that Feldman committed professional misconduct as alleged.
Based on the criminal conviction, the panel found that Feldman engaged in conduct that violated a criminal law, in violation of MCR 9.104(5).
Based on Feldman’s default, the panel further found that he knowingly failed to respond to a lawful demand for information from a disciplinary authority, in violation of MRPC 8.1(a)(2), and failed to answer a request for investigation in conformity with MCR 9.113(A) and (B)(2), in violation of MCR 9.104(7).
The panel also found that Feldman’s conduct violated MRPC 8.4(a) and (c) and MCR 9.104(1)–(4).
Sanction
The panel ordered that Feldman be disbarred from the practice of law in Michigan. Costs were assessed in the amount of $1,879.24.
Why This Matters
Disbarment represents the most severe sanction available under Michigan’s attorney discipline system. In this case, the sanction reflects not only a criminal conviction, but persistent non-compliance with disciplinary obligations, including failure to report a conviction and failure to respond to investigative demands.
The record further reflects that Feldman had been continuously suspended from the practice of law since July 21, 2016, underscoring how prolonged non-cooperation and default can culminate in permanent loss of licensure rather than corrective discipline.
