Rogers was well-known throughout the San Francisco Bay Area as "the People's Lawyer," thanks to television commercials which ran throughout the 1990s, until he resigned from the bar in September 2006 with disciplinary charges pending. [ [http://members.calbar.ca.gov/search/member_detail.aspx?x=95990 State Bar of CA :: James Martin Rogers ] ] Rogers' legal career was marred by controversy, as he was repeatedly accused of fraudulent, negligent, and unethical practices by former clients.
