McFarland, J.,
dissenting in part and concurring in part: I concur with the majority’s determinations as to the violations having occurred. I dissent from the discipline imposed. The violations are serious. Additionally, respondent appears to be overwhelmed by her professional responsibilities. Even at this late date, she is unable to state the legal status of the personal injury case, but simply wants to be left alone to resolve whatever problems there are in the case. It would appear there is nothing to resolve therein — the case is over and her injured client is out in the cold. The protection of respondent’s present and future clients, in my opinion, requires more than public censure.
