Attorney Accused — Again — of Trading Legal Services for Sexual Favors
When Connecticut attorney Ira S. Mayo allegedly offered to waive a client's fees in exchange for a naked back rub, he triggered an investigation that seems to have jeopardized his law license over an encounter with a woman. It's familiar territory for Mayo: In 2005, his license was suspended for 15 months for making unwanted sexual advances toward clients referred to him by the Susan B. Anthony Project for abused women. In order to resume his practice in 2007, Mayo had agreed not to be alone with women in his office.
