Legal Ethics: A Guide for Future Practitioners
helps students better understand how ethical rules are applied in real-world legal practice and encourages them to discover, discuss, and debate, about different scenarios that can make up ethical dilemmas in their future careers.
The interactive ebook format allows students to read the text of each chapter and engage with digital learning activities-including pre-assessments; embedded links to articles, examples, and resources; dynamic scenarios; cases; videos; and digital flashcards-all within a single system.
The opening chapter discusses ethics, morality, and regulation of the legal profession. Students learn about the structure of legal ethics in the United States, why lawyers are regulated, and the importance of maintaining the integrity of the profession. Additional chapters cover establishing and terminating the attorney-client relationship; competency and diligence; attorney fees; and communication, confidentiality, and privilege. Two dedicated chapters explore conflict of interest, including concurrent conflicts of interest, waivers, imputation and screening, personal conflicts, successive or former clients, and more. Closing chapters address the lawyer as advocate, decision-making in the lawyer-client relationship, and advertising and solicitation.
