Quote of the Day: "I'm not really happy about too many things with the practice of law right now."

Twenty-nine year old New Hampshire lawyer, Dan Dargon, is already fed up with the practice of law.  He and his defunct law firm are currently on the hook to the tune of $330,000 in fines for illegal mortgage modification.  This is Maddie Hanna's account for the Concord Monitor:

Concord attorney Dan Dargon and his disbanded law firm have been ordered by the state Banking Department to pay more than $330,000 in fines and restitution for modifying mortgages without a license.  But it's unclear whether the department - or the 71 clients it decided were entitled to restitution - will see any of the money.

"It's not going to happen," Dargon said yesterday. "Number one, I don't have a half a million dollars or whatever to pay. I'm 29 years old, I'm a young lawyer. I'm actually going into the Army late October. I'm not really happy about too many things with the practice of law right now."
