Download or read book Lawyers in Practice written by Leslie C. Levin and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2012-04-16 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do lawyers resolve ethical dilemmas in the everyday context of their practice? What are the issues that commonly arise, and how do lawyers determine the best ways to resolve them? Until recently, efforts to answer these questions have focused primarily on rules and legal doctrine rather than the real-life situations lawyers face in legal practice. The first book to present empirical research on ethical decision making in a variety of practice contexts, including corporate litigation, securities, immigration, and divorce law, Lawyers in Practice fills a substantial gap in the existing literature. Following an introduction emphasizing the increasing importance of understanding context in the legal profession, contributions focus on ethical dilemmas ranging from relatively narrow ethical issues to broader problems of professionalism, including the prosecutor’s obligation to disclose evidence, the management of conflicts of interest, and loyalty to clients and the court. Each chapter details the resolution of a dilemma from the practitioner’s point of view that is, in turn, set within a particular community of practice. Timely and practical, this book should be required reading for law students as well as students and scholars of law and society.

Download or read book Ethical Rules for Estate Planning Lawyers written by John Richard Price and published by . This book was released on with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "... focuses primarily on the rules of professional conduct that govern lawyers, with emphasis on the application of the rules to lawyers whose practices involve tax and estate planning. These so-called ethical rules represent serious efforts at self-regulation by the legal profession in each state. The rules are intended to protect the public, the profession, and the legal system as a whole. The ethical rules are related to, but distinct from, the standard of performance by which a lawyer's civil liability (malpractice) is determined. Notably, the violation of an ethical rule could give rise to a disciplinary action against the lawyer, which could result in the lawyer being exonerated, censured, suspended from practice or disbarred. The same conduct could also have serious civil consequences for the lawyer or the lawyer's firm, including the invalidation of documents, recovery of fees paid to the lawyer, and imposition of liability on the lawyer or the firm in a malpractice action"--P. iii.
