Berlusconi's Lawyer has a History of Mistakes

It seems that this isn't the first time that British lawyer, David Mills, has landed himself in hot water with the law. Although currently convicted of accepting a bribe from Italian Prime Minister, Silvio Berlusconi, to falsely testify in court, he has a history of lapses in judgment in other law-related cases.

He was forbidden to practice law in Dubai, after trying to work on a deal to sell jets to Iran, because he never admitted that he had been the subject of an official investigation. Furthermore, he is also under investigation for a case involving Berlusconi and tax evasion on television film rights. He is also being prosecuted for possibly making money transfers to himself from a client's offshore account, without permission.
