Wasn’t he stealing money from his clients, which caused the suspension?
EEG's disbarment was before my time, but it looks like it was more encouraging the unauthorized practice of law:

I thought that was a job requirement as a lawyer

I know it's a fun, popular joke, but attorneys routinely get lengthy suspensions for merely "commingling" funds, i.e. not properly keeping their operating and trust accounts separate, even if the money was never taken. On the other hand, "conversion of client funds", or improperly taking the money from the client, routinely results in permanent disbarment.

Don't know how old he is, but he looks pretty rough in person. As you would expect, the ads are a lot more flattering.

I'm sure I could find his DOB, but that's the kind of creepy shite I try to avoid
According to his public bio, he graduated from UNO in 1975. Assuming a relatively normal age of 22 at college graduation, that would have him right around 70 now.

Now he was definitely either disbarred or suspended for a very long time. I can't remember which. But yeah, he only just got back in the game a few years ago
No, he wasn’t. This is 100% false.
It’s not hard to search the Louisiana Attorney Disciplinary Board website before you make a defamatory post.

Go back and read the posts in order. I think you're a bit confused.
Unless you're trying to say that E. Eric Guirard was never suspended or disbarred, and then I'm going to be even more confused than you appear to be.

Crazy that the politicians are so fricked in that state that PI attorneys are generally better people than elected officials.

Can Morris Bart's butt chin even fit in NOLA DA's office??

I may have been confused about who I was responding to. Morris Bart has not been suspended from the practice of law.
Yeah, my post was meant for Btrtigerfan, who claimed that MB was disbarred in LA.

No worries. Guy I responded to said that MB had been disbarred. I said I didn't think that was accurate. He replied that he was confusing MB with EEG, and I replied that he had definitely been either disbarred or suspended (now that I've looked it up, I've confirmed disbarred). But the posts were short and clipped, so I could see how it might be confusing to see them out of order

As a claims manager for a large marine company, we got sued by every deckhand with a broken fingernail. I always breathed a sigh of relief if MB was repping them. You knew they were never going to trial, the lawyers working there were bottom of the barrel, settling was always low and easy.
So don't expect the DA's office to get more aggressive.

BATON ROUGE, LA (WAFB) - The Louisiana Supreme Court has disbarred high-profile Baton Rouge attorney E. Eric Guirard and his law partner Thomas Pittenger, WAFB's Jim Shannon reports.
In a 23-page opinion, the Louisiana Supreme Court ordered Guirard's name "striken from the rolls and his Louisiana law license revoked." The same decision was made for Pittenger.
Both lawyers can reapply for their law licenses after a period of five years.

"The lawyers working there"> MB was well known for using paralegals & insurance adjusters to work the cases. When it came time to seriously talk money, one of his low paid minions would step in. He was also well known for leaving a business card clipped to a dollar bill for tips.

If I had to guess, the DA's office is going to send them a review checklist. Anything that meets the checklist gets the prescribed action. Anything that doesn't meet the checklist gets referred back to the DA's office. I very seriously doubt they will have any kind of executive decision making authority.
