A unanimous Appellate Division, First Department panel on Thursday disbarred Bronx attorney Eugene Anyikwa for failing to cooperate with an investigation into allegations that he neglected cases and failed to communicate with clients.

The departmental disciplinary committee began investigating Anyikwa in 2011 in response to three complaints.

In January 2013, it served a complaint on him by mail to his last known home and business addresses and by notice published in the Law Journal, but still received no response.
