The Georgia Supreme Court has suspended Lawrenceville lawyer Christopher T. Adams from practicing law for 18 months.
Adams was indicted in 2008 for false statements, solicitation and theft by taking for misrepresenting the number of hours he billed Gwinnett County for representing indigent defendants. Charges were dropped after Adams admitted to wrongdoing, reimbursed $10,605 to the county and accepted a lifetime ban from accepting public funds for representing indigent clients. Adams had asked the court to suspend him for at least six months.
