<\/a><\/center><\/p>\nAndy 11M sends us a link to an Associated Press<\/a> story about Kimberly Kitchen who pretended to be an estate planning lawyer for a decade with 30 clients. <\/p>\n Kitchen, 45, fooled BMZ Law, a Huntingdon firm, by forging a law license, bar exam results, an email showing she attended Duquesne University law school and a check for a state attorney registration fee, prosecutors said.<\/p>\n The James Creek resident handled estate planning for more than 30 clients despite never attending law school, and she even served as president of the county bar association for a time. She made partner at BMZ before the fraud was discovered.<\/p>\n […]<\/p>\n “We think that she had no intent to defraud,” [Defense attorney Caroline Roberto ] said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n No intent to defraud – other than the fact that she forged a law license, bar exam results, even a check for registration with the bar. Nope, they can’t prove intent to defraud. According to Above the Law<\/a>, she also claimed to have taught law at Columbia Law School.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
