For Today, A Simple and Sincere Apology Will Suffice
When my fraudulent banking practices where beginning to come to light, I immediately resigned from my Law Firm. At that point in time I was effectively cut off from communicating with anyone at my old Law Firm as they were instructed, in no uncertain terms , to have no contact with me! My attorneys also instructed me not to communicate with my former Colleagues.
In addition, my Banking Clients were barred from communicating with me and I was barred from contacting them.
Finally, I was instructed not to discuss my case with my friends. (I violated this directive on several occasions with my close friends)
Ok, so I am in a situation where I have engaged in improper conduct and I cannot explain myself or apologize for my actions.
The explanation will come at a later date. The explanation is not as important as the apology. Why tarnish a sincere apology with an excuse or explanation?
To my former Clients and Colleagues, I am sorry for the financial and emotional harm I have caused. I am doing everything in my power to try and make this right. I want Keith, Boot, Drew, Ernie, Craig, Harve, Vlad, Jacob, Emily, Shareef,, Barb, Laurie, Gary, John, Laurie, Roz, Christine, Bill, Ed, Mike, Curt, Sue, William,Tyler, Dan, Chris, Jessica, John, David, Randal, Sueanne, Frances, Zac, Earl, Bob, Rob, Joe, Alfredo, Wayne, Mike, Scott and Dana to know that I am truly sorry for every unpleasant consequence that has flowed from my conduct.
You are all wonderful people who did not deserve to be dragged down by my improper actions.
I would be remiss if I failed to publicly apologize to my friends. Many of them have chosen to stick by me despite their shock and disappointment in my actions.
Finally, I have caused devastating financial and emotional harm to my Family. How they have managed to hang in with me is beyond belief.
A direct and public apology is not going to repair the significant damage that has been done. I do hope that it is the first step on my road to redemption.
