The Complexities Of Lawyer Ethics Code Drafting: The Contributions Of Professor Fred Zacharias, Nancy J. Moore Feb 2011

The Complexities Of Lawyer Ethics Code Drafting: The Contributions Of Professor Fred Zacharias, Nancy J. Moore

San Diego Law Review

In this Article, I address three aspects of the special and evolving nature of lawyer ethics codes in order to acknowledge the important contributions of Professor Zacharias. As I hope to show, Professor Zacharias’s publications present a far more complex and nuanced view of the task of drafting lawyer ethics codes than either the Commission or I had contemplated. Although there was not much time then to further address these more theoretical concerns, I am confident that we would have benefitted enormously from a deeper exploration of his scholarship in this area.


Globalization And Eligibility To Deliver Legal Advice: Inbound Legal Services Provided By Corporate Counsel Licensed Only In A Country Outside The United States, Carol A. Needham Feb 2011

Globalization And Eligibility To Deliver Legal Advice: Inbound Legal Services Provided By Corporate Counsel Licensed Only In A Country Outside The United States, Carol A. Needham

San Diego Law Review

The regulation of cross-border delivery of legal services remains in flux. Clients in the United States, particularly sophisticated corporate clients, should be allowed to utilize the special expertise possessed by lawyers licensed outside the United States. Key reforms that at this point are gaining traction include the following: allowing lawyers licensed outside the United States to qualify for limited licenses as in-house counsel; broadening the scope of practice so that all foreign legal consultants are allowed to give legal advice related to third-country and international law; and allowing fly in, fly out practice while temporarily present in the host state. …

Federalizing Legal Ethics, Nationalizing Law Practice, And The Future Of The American Legal Profession In A Global Age, Eli Wald Feb 2011

Federalizing Legal Ethics, Nationalizing Law Practice, And The Future Of The American Legal Profession In A Global Age, Eli Wald

San Diego Law Review

This Article is organized as a response to Zaharias’s influential paper, revisiting each of his four analytical steps. Following Zacharias, Part II documents the growing nationalization and globalization of law practice, and argues that the transformation of law practice renders the state-based regulation of lawyers ineffective. Part III parts ways with Zacharias’s thesis. It asserts that nationalizing, by federalizing, legal ethics is not warranted by changing practice realities and that, worse, federalizing legal ethics without more will leave some of the most troubling aspects of the transformation of law practice, including client needs, unaddressed. Instead, Part III argues that the …

Disparities among circuit court rulings add to the confusion and unpredictability typical of Immigration Court decisions. Finally, the article discusses the difficulties raised by the divergent circuit court opinions and offers suggestions as to how we may resolve these difficulties in accordance with the Constitution's requirement of fair play.


Walking The Legal Tightrope: Solutions For Achieving A Balanced Life In Law, Leslie Larkin Cooney May 2010

Walking The Legal Tightrope: Solutions For Achieving A Balanced Life In Law, Leslie Larkin Cooney

San Diego Law Review

The concern about achieving balance in order to enrich the lives of women attorneys has grown today to become a problem of such proportions that many women now leave the practice of law because they find they cannot achieve a satisfactory quality of life within its strictures. This exodus not only affects the women who abandon a professional position in which they invested hard work, financial resources, and emotional wherewithal to achieve, but also our society in general. The under-representation of women practicing law impacts the culture of the legal profession and the quality of legal services offered to clients. …

Advocacy Under Islam And Common Law, Liaquat Ali Khan May 2008

Advocacy Under Islam And Common Law, Liaquat Ali Khan

San Diego Law Review

This Article shows that both Anglo-American and Islamic legal traditions have been highly sophisticated in supporting advocacy as a doctrine of justice. And both traditions must save this doctrine from distortions that have corroded the doctrine's normative foundation. This comparative study will hopefully provide insights into jurisprudential recesses of each tradition. It might also inform lawyers, judges, and academics of the two traditions, possibly generating mutual respect and learning.

Speak No Evil: Circumventing Chinese Censorship, Jennifer Shyu Feb 2008

Speak No Evil: Circumventing Chinese Censorship, Jennifer Shyu

San Diego Law Review

This Comment will focus on the issue of the role of American corporations in enforcing Chinese censorship law. In the hands of the Chinese government, the increased freedom of speech granted by the Internet and brought to China via American corporations is curtailed by state-sponsored censorship. To do business in China, American companies must comply with Chinese Internet censorship laws, yet these very laws not only restrain the freedom of speech of Chinese citizens but also subject offenders to the whim of the Chinese secret police. As accurately stated in the hearing, Yahoo! aided China in arresting at least two …
