A Barnes & Thornburg equity partner in Atlanta who faced possible disbarment for fraudulently billing a corporate client tens of thousands of dollars instead will be suspended for two years, the Georgia Supreme Court ordered Monday.

John F. Meyers, a member of the Georgia bar since 1983, is a labor and employment partner in Barnes & Thornburg’s Atlanta office. He joined the firm in 2012 from Seyfarth Shaw. Barnes & Thornburg removed Meyers’ biography from the firm’s website after the discipline was announced.
