A man who posed as a lawyer and investment adviser has been convicted of stealing nearly $6 million from his clients — after representing himself at the trial.

Mohammed Rafikian, also known as Mo Kian, of Queens, owed millions after losing money day trading, and he took over the practice of an ailing attorney as a way to solve his financial troubles, prosecutors said. He had worked as a paralegal but was not a lawyer.

Raoul, you should take this as a warning. We don't want your status as a fake lawyer to land you in jail unable to grace us with your remarkable perspective on every post ever written here on XPT.

Nice find, Ceara. At least now we know where Moxie's been hiding...

Nah, Moxie has probably been quartered in the bathtub of some no tell motel by a ho's street pimp. JimB is the one that does the fake lawyering.
