License revoked for Michael Jackson’s former lawyer

A few months ago, You read that Michael Jackson’s former lawyer, Brian Oxman, was on the verge of being banned from practicing. Two days ago, Roger Friedman reported that the ruling has been upheld and Oxman will finally lose his law license after many reprimands. The ruling will take effect on July 27. His wife, Maren Jaroszkek, has also been suspended from work for 18 months. In his ruling, the judge wrote: "To protect the public, the court, and the legal profession, we are suspending Brian Oxman from practicing law." Oxman worked as Michael Jackson’s lawyer years ago until, in 2005, he was removed from his position by Thomas Mesereau, Michael’s senior attorney. After that, Oxman took over as Michael’s father’s lawyer and, over the years, appeared on television programs as the representative and lawyer for the Jackson family. Friedman wrote: "At Randy’s insistence, the younger brother of Michael, Oxman entered the 2005 case. In court, he disrupted proceedings several times and once even fell asleep and snored loudly. Oxman was interested in appearing on television, and that’s why the media used him as their expert on Michael Jackson matters. The media isn’t willing to accept the truth that just because someone wants to be seen doesn’t mean they also have something to say. Mesereau, the excellent lawyer that Oxman had been forced upon, must now be excited about this news. In Mesereau’s view, Oxman was an idiot who couldn’t keep his mouth shut. The revocation of his law license has nothing to do with the Jackson case; it stems from mismanagement of his client’s funds, poor performance during a divorce case, and other violations." One of Oxman and his wife’s violations was taking possession of their client’s assets and depriving his children of their father’s inheritance for eight years. Source: eMJey.com / showbiz411
