On January 23, 2026, pursuant to Article III, Rule 13 of the Supreme Court

Rules of Disciplinary Procedure for Attorneys, the respondent, Raymond T.

setting forth that he is aware that he is the subject of an investigation into

professional misconduct. The respondent’s affidavit sets forth that he freely and

voluntarily consents to disbarment, and that he is fully aware of the implications of

submitting his consent. On February 4, 2026, Disciplinary Counsel filed the

respondent’s affidavit with the Court.

Upon review of respondent’s affidavit, we deem that an order disbarring

respondent is appropriate.

Accordingly, pursuant to Article III, Rule 13, it is hereby ordered, adjudged,

and decreed that the respondent, Raymond T. Trebisacci, be and is hereby disbarred

on consent from engaging in the practice of law.

It is further ordered that Stephen M. Reck, Esq., of the law firm of Stephen

The Special Master and/or his designated agents of the law firm are hereby

authorized to have full access to respondent’s client files and office in order to

effectuate this Order.

It is further ordered that Chief Disciplinary Counsel Kerry Reilley Travers is

hereby appointed Special Master over respondent’s accounts. The Special Master

over accounts and/or her designated agents are given sole and exclusive access to

the following accounts heretofore controlled by respondent, either solely or jointly:

business and operating accounts; trust accounts, including special trust accounts;

clients’ accounts; estate accounts; and any and all other accounts related to

respondent’s law practice that he uses presently or has in the past utilized for the

deposit and maintenance of fiduciary and/or clients’ funds and fee advances. The

foregoing list of accounts shall also include any accounts where respondent serves

as an agent, special agent, trustee, personal representative, executor, power of

attorney, or custodian. The Special Master over accounts shall have sole control over

these above-described accounts, to the exclusion of respondent. By this Order, the

Court prohibits respondent or any of his agents from withdrawing or transferring

funds from the aforementioned accounts.

-2-
The Court also hereby orders respondent to fully cooperate with the Special

Masters to assist them and their agents in effectuating their duties and directs that

any lack of cooperation on respondent’s behalf be reported to this Court for further

action.

The respondent is directed to comply with the mandates of Article III, Rule

15 of the Supreme Court Rules of Disciplinary Procedure for Attorneys, and within

ten days after the effective date of the disbarment order, the respondent shall file

with the Clerk of this Court an affidavit showing:

requirements of Article III, Rule 15;
