Zeroes Among Us, Scott N. Tisevich, Reno Attorney-at-Law

The same similar disdain for employees, clients and fiduciary duties as I previously reported about Reno Counselors Mitchell Wright and Kent B. Hanson http://www.babelation.com/?q=node/840 and Cliff J. Young (son) http://www.babelation.com/?q=node/1077 .

Many stories have come in to me since I started this Among Us series. When I met Scott N. Tisevich, Attorney-at-Law, 775.786.8926 ostensibly to interview him to hire him for a bankruptcy, I took my wife along, as we really are looking into bankruptcy. At that time, I’d had more than a year of stories coming in, and Scott Tisevich was also often mentioned. I’d had a slew of horror stories about Counselor Tisevich by the time my wife and I walked into his office.
Counselor Tisevich’s office had a high turn-over with employees. Some employees only lasted a week or two. His office did not return repeated phone calls.

Other complaints that I’ve received are about being yelled at by Counselor Tisevich. Yelled at for complaints such as:

1. losing files

2. not returning repeated calls

3. having incorrect mailing addresses

4. employee’s children in the legal offices

5. My wife and I heard all about the previous client’s what should have been private legal issues, as Counselor Tisevich was running more than an hour late

6. the casual attire of the office from Counselor Tisevich to his staff

7. the high employee turn-over at Counselor Tisevich’s office

8. the way the phone is seldom answered and when occasionally answered, the unprofessional and even disdainful way it is answered

9. the way client files are not filed nor secured

10. The way Counselor Tisevich arrogantly puts his feet up on his desk while disdainfully talking down to his legal clients

11. The way Counselor Tisevich does not even show up to court hearings and didn’t even do a prior notification to his client or the judge/trustee he would not be there

12. Appointments were never kept on time, and often times, not even kept

13. The common use of profanity in the office by Counselor Tisevich and his staff

14. One former employee complained that Counselor Tisevich had issued one end-of-year pay stub to Nevada DETR and a W2 to the iRS with different totals on it from the one submitted to DETR. 14. The way employees bickered, often profanely, at each other in front of clients

15. Repeated claiming faxes were not received in spite of client fax receipts

16. The personal business that Counselor Tisevich and his staff openly and arrogantly conducted while they were supposed to be in a meeting with the legal client.

To me, gloating promoters of the Information Age all too often forget that knowledge has always been about connecting people and their behaviors, not just in collecting information. There has been and continues to be a democratic demand for more relevancy and currency in people’s and organization’s behaviors, and to holding people and organizations accountable for their conduct.
I believe that the Internet, the servant to a Knowledge Economy, is the true democratic voice of facts and free speech beliefs. Using the Internet to do a search is simply a reversion to the search of any life for credentials and integrity of another’s life.

Most have access to a computer. Public schools and libraries have free public computer access and training. Most can now instantly post previously hidden facts and their free speech opinions, and access others’ post of previously hidden, even deliberately suppressed, facts and free speech opinions. Happenings and ideology that previously would never have been disseminated are now readily found with a simple Google search. A Google search is just a search for credentials and integrity.

The result is that individuals and organizations are suddenly finding their previously hidden illegal, corrupt, lazy, or immoral behaviors, and their secrets, avarice, cravings, or even mistakes, suddenly and rightfully very publicly front and center on the Internet. Integrity, or its’ lack, is immediately exposed in a simple Google search.Harmful behaviors that once were self-servingly known then to be ephemeral, and smugly relied on by the licentious perpetuators to be such, are now instantly available for analysis and judgement in the permanence the of the Internet. In response, evil raises its specious clamor when it finds itself suddenly and rightfully in the expose spotlight of the Internet. Once exposed, evil then aggressively applies its Unclean Hands to spurious ridicule and makes heavy-handed, manipulative intentionally damaging legal threats of, or illegally pursues, defamation to brutally and wrongly silence the dissemination of facts and muzzle free speech beliefs. The Internet though, has rightfully, quietly and powerfully abdicated the corrupt in its’ contemptuous and former commanding amoral influence in silencing facts and free speech beliefs.

Sources: Counselor Tisevich’s clients’ complaints, my and my wife’s trip to Counselor Tisevich’s office, meeting with him, court and trustee hearings we sat in on, lawyer’s Canons (ethical standards).

All court records, unless specifically asked to be sealed aka no longer public, which is very rare, are public records. For this expose, I also went to the courts and found out the names and addresses of his previous and current clients and interviewed them.
