*69Based on the respondent’s admissions and the evidence adduced at the hearing, the Special Referee should have sustained all of the charges against the respondent. Thus, the Grievance Committee’s motion to confirm the Special Referee’s report insofar as it sustains Charges One through Five and Seven through Fourteen and to disaffirm the report insofar as it fails to sustain Charge Six is granted. The branch of the respondent’s cross motion which is to confirm the Special Referee’s report insofar as it sustains Charges Three, Seven, Eight, Twelve, and Thirteen is also granted, and the cross motion is otherwise denied.
In determining the appropriate measure of discipline to impose, we have considered the mitigating circumstances proffered by the respondent, including her lack of experience in running a law office, and her lack of veniality. The respondent’s prior disciplinary history consists of a one-year suspension for failure to cooperate with the Grievance Committee’s investigation of the charges that are the subject of the present disciplinary proceeding.
Under the totality of the circumstances, the respondent is disbarred for her acts of professional misconduct.
