Manhattan personal injury attorney John M. Ioannou was stricken from the roll of attorneys by an Appellate Division, First Department, panel after he admitted to embezzling almost $400,000 of settlement money intended for his clients and stealing a sick woman’s identity to get settlement money for himself.
Ioannou was admitted to the bar in 1983. His first brush with the attorney disciplinary system came in 2007, when he was censured for neglecting a personal injury case and withdrawing his legal fee before dividing it between himself and previous counsel.
