Evelyn dove-Coleman



On June 26, 2003, the Disciplinary Hearing Commission of the North Carolina State Bar entered an order disbarring former Kinston attorney Evelyn dove-Coleman. The commission found that, among other things, dove-Coleman used a power of attorney to obtain client property for her own use and misappropriated funds belonging to an estate.

The following listing was found on the Internet:
A former Orange County attorney has been arrested for fraudulently obtaining the power of attorney over two of UNC's first black professors and stealing approximately $155,000 from the couple and their estate in 1999. Evelyn Dove-Coleman was disbarred by the North Carolina State Bar and lost a civil suit on the matter, but this is the first time criminal charges have been brought.
