Ethical Problems Of An International Human Rights Law Practice, David Weissbrodt
Ethical Problems Of An International Human Rights Law Practice, David Weissbrodt
Michigan Journal of International Law
This article examines two sources of ethical constraint on U.S. lawyers practicing international human rights law: the Model Code of Professional Responsibility (CPR or Model Code), which was adopted by the American Bar Association (ABA) in 1969, and the Model Rules of Professional Conduct (Model Rules), which were adopted in 1983. Part I establishes that these sources apply to the U.S. lawyer regardless of whether or not the lawyer is in the United States and whether or not he is acting as an attorney. Attorneys who leave the countries where they practice law and travel to other nations to observe …

Legal Ethics: Discretion And Utility In Model Rule 1.6, Charles A. Kelbley
Legal Ethics: Discretion And Utility In Model Rule 1.6, Charles A. Kelbley
Fordham Urban Law Journal
No other profession requires practitioners to identify so closely and completely with the interests and confidences of their clients, as in the legal profession. Unlike doctors, priests, rabbis and other professionals, the lawyer is an adviser but also an advocate. Rule 1.6 is a major flaw in the legal profession's history of self-discipline. This rule fails the test of logic because the concept of discretion which it reflects is self-contradictory. This rule is a crude form of utilitarianism and should be reformulated to require disclosure whenever clients have no right to confidentiality and their conduct would constitute unjustified aggression or …

Yellow Pages Legal Ads In Texas: The Complexities Of Dr 2-101(B) & (And) (C)., Vincent Robert Johnson
St. Mary's Law Journal
This Article explains how attorneys can avoid private reprimands for advertisements in the Yellow Pages pursuant to subsection (B) and (C) of the Texas Code of Professional Responsibility Disciplinary Rule 2-101, given there is no scholarship or precedent. Subsection (B) requires an advertisement to include the name of a lawyer who is licensed to practice law in Texas, who will be responsible for performing the legal service, and the areas of law in which they practice. Subsection (C) requires detailed statements be included concerning whether the individuals named in compliance with subsection (B) are certified with the Texas Board of …

Taking And Pursuing A Case: Some Observations Regarding "Legal Ethics" And Attorney Accountability, Richard H. Underwood
Law Faculty Scholarly Articles
This Article addresses some of the potential liabilities that may arise from an attorney's decision to decline, refer, undertake, continue or discontinue the prosecution of a civil action. This Article suggests that counsel's obligations to his or her client, adversary, and fellow members of the bar, as well as to the judiciary and the justice system, can be balanced without subjecting attorneys to liability. This balance can be attained, however, only if potential problems are spotted and minimal precautions are taken.

The Attorney-Client Privilege, Thomas C. Dawson Jr., John T. Tucker Iii, Kevin J. Whyte
University of Richmond Law Review
History suggests that the attorney-client privilege is the oldest of the evidentiary privileges. It probably arose at common law during the 1500's, concurrent with the right to trial by jury. Judges initially viewed the privilege as a vindication of "the oath and the honor of the attorney." However, during the late 1700's, courts began to assert that the privilege's purpose was to encourage clients to make full disclosure to their counsel, by "providing subjectively for the client's freedom of apprehension." In 1871, the Virginia Supreme Court5 stated that "[i]f the privilege did not exist at all, every one would be …
The Status Of Lawyer Advertising In Virginia: What Is Good Taste?, Carol Anne Weiss
The Status Of Lawyer Advertising In Virginia: What Is Good Taste?, Carol Anne Weiss
University of Richmond Law Review
When Abraham Lincoln wanted to attract clients to his law practice in 1837, he ran a simple advertisement announcing his services in an Illinois newspaper. Despite the precedent set by "Honest Abe," fifty years later the American Bar Association banned legal advertising and solicitation. Today, there is no absolute ban on legal advertising. A need exists for information regarding legal assistance, and in today's commercially-oriented society, it is not surprising that members of the legal profession want to advertise the availability of their services.
The Fall And Rise Of Professionalism, Thomas D. Morgan
The Fall And Rise Of Professionalism, Thomas D. Morgan
University of Richmond Law Review
In recent years, there has been an increasing concern among lawyers that the legal profession may be declining in "professionalism." Professionalism is not a self-defining term; indeed, it is greatly overused today. There are professional football players, professional models and even professional wrestlers. The question, then, is what it means to be a professional for purposes of trying to decide whether lawyers are more professional or less professional than before. Although several definitions might be offered, I would assert that traditional professions seem to have at least three attributes.
The Virginia Code Of Professional Responsibility, Roderick B. Mathews
The Virginia Code Of Professional Responsibility, Roderick B. Mathews
University of Richmond Law Review
The purposes of my comments are to: (1) outline the historical development of the Code of Professional Responsibility (CPR) in the organized bar in the United States; (2) summarize the important differences between the Virginia Code of Professional Responsibility (Virginia CPR) and its predecessor in Virginia; (3) discuss the reasons for the most significant of those changes; and (4) compare the important differences between the American Bar Association model adopted in August 1983 (the Kutak Model) and the Virginia CPR. For the sake of brevity, I will make no reference to the multiple editorial revisions in the Virginia CPR which …

Sharing Among The Human Capitalists: An Economic Inquiry Into The Corporate Law Firm And How Partners Split Profits, Ronald J. Gilson, Robert H. Mnookin
Faculty Scholarship
Large corporate law firms seem to be in a state of extraordinary flux. Success and failure are both on the rise. Large firms appear to supply a substantial and growing proportion of the legal services consumed by American business enterprises and to hire a significant fraction of the graduating classes of elite American law schools. Moreover, the last twenty years have witnessed a remarkable expansion in both the number of large firms and the absolute size of the biggest. But accompanying this striking success, there are also signs of serious institutional instability. During the last few years, several previously successful …
