The Florida Supreme Court took disciplinary action against three South Florida attorneys between Aug. 30 and Sept. 27. The amount is a marked decrease from previous months, in which the court typically levied punishment against more than 10 regional lawyers per four week period.

The high court granted attorney Joseph Bernstein’s petition for disciplinary revocation in a Sept. 27 court order. Bernstein’s punishment was effective immediately, and he will not be able to seek readmission. As noted on Bernstein’s profile on the Florida Bar’s website, the Fort Lauderdale-based lawyer continued to practice law following a disciplinary revocation in June 2016.
