From lawyer to defendant, 39-year old Chicago area attorney Michael Skoubis has been charged with deceptive practice after allegedly attempting to pay another lawyer with checks that were drawn from an account that had been closed for over a year. It has been reported that there were 3 checks in question, totaling $50,000.

According to the Chicago Crime Examiner, Skoubis has several complaints made against him by clients who claim to have paid for his predominantly divorce-related legal services but haven’t received any counsel.

Claiming financial issues, Skoubis has somehow managed to post his bond set at $60,000.
