On Tuesday, July 23, 2024, the Supreme Court of Missouri issued an order for the interim suspension of attorney Spencer Jordan Webster from the practice of law.
The case is entitled “In the Matter of Spencer Jordan Webster,” with case no. SC100624.
The court order stated that the Chief Disciplinary Counsel had filed an information and motion for interim suspension under Rule 5.24, alleging there was sufficient evidence demonstrating probable cause that Webster was guilty of multiple instances of professional misconduct violating Rule 4 of the Supreme Court.
After reviewing the case materials, the Supreme Court found that probable cause existed showing Webster had committed several acts of professional misconduct. The court also determined Webster posed a substantial threat of causing irreparable harm to the public and undermining the integrity of the legal profession if he continued practicing.
As a result, the Supreme Court immediately suspended Webster’s law license on an interim basis. The order also required Webster to comply with all provisions under Rule 5.27, which addresses procedures that must be followed after a disbarment or suspension from practicing law. Webster will have to follow the court’s rules while his case is pending. The costs of the proceedings were also assessed against him.
According to avvo.com, Mr. Webster is a land use & zoning attorney in Kansas City, Missouri. He acquired his law license in Missouri in 2018.
