Denver Bankruptcy Lawyer Devon Barclay Has Been Suspended – Holland Law Office Can Help You!

As of January 10th, 2023, high-volume Colorado bankruptcy attorney Devon Barclay has been suspended from practicing law by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court, District of Colorado for a period of three years.

U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Thomas McNamara suspended Mr. Barclay for multiple reasons. In 2022, Mr. Barclay filed approximately 450 consumer bankruptcy cases, which is about three times as many cases as any other attorney in the State of Colorado. At that pace, Mr. Barclay was unable to give each client the personal attention required to file correctly.

Additional reasons for the suspension include Mr. Barclay’s conduct while representing Matthew and Nicole Mennona, a Littleton couple who sought Chapter 7 relief during the pandemic.

Judge McNamara found that Mr. Barclay forged his clients’ signatures on their Chapter 7 petition, attempted to get the bankruptcy case dismissed multiple times under “false assertions of fact,” and ignored a trustee’s discovery efforts, leading to his clients receiving a $2,783.50 sanction.
