Former Cozen O’Connor conflicts attorney William Gericke has been barred from practicing law for one year in the state of Pennsylvania.

Gericke was charged with violating U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission rules on insider trading in 2021, having misappropriated information he gained as a conflicts attorney at Cozen O’Connor to help him profit on the stock market. He was placed on administrative leave and soon left Cozen O’Connor after the charges were leveled, later to join Bala Cynwyd firm Dugan, Brinkmann, Maginnis, & Pace.
