Respondent inadvertently endorsed a retainer check and gave it to her husband who deposited it into the family's bank account. Respondent thereafter performed some legal services for her client but failed to maintain complete and contemporaneous records of the services she had performed. Her misconduct constituted grounds for the imposition of discipline pursuant to C.R.C.P. 251.5 and violated Colo. RPC 1.15(a) and Colo. RPC 1.15(c).
