A Torrington attorney is being suspended for four months for violating a judge’s order that he not represent women in family law or domestic violence cases. The suspension is the second for Ira Mayo, who is also banned from having female clients for the rest of his legal career.
Mayo’s problems go back a number of years. On July 13, 2010, he stood before then-Superior Court Judge Robert Holzberg in Middletown and said he understood perfectly a court order severely restricting circumstances he could represent women in legal matters.
