The Special Referee sustained all the charges of professional misconduct. The petitioner moves to confirm the report of the Special Referee and the respondent cross-moves, inter alia, to disaffirm the report.
After reviewing all of the evidence, we are in agreement *81with the report of the Special Referee. We find the respondent guilty of all of the misconduct outlined above. The petitioner’s motion to confirm the report of the Special Referee should be granted and respondent’s cross motion, inter alia, to disaffirm the report should be denied.
In determining an appropriate measure of discipline to be imposed, we have taken into consideration the mitigating circumstances advanced by the respondent at the hearing of this matter. Accordingly, the respondent is suspended from the practice of law for a period of three years commencing November 15, 1990, until the further order of this court.
