Written by one of the most experienced law firm general counsel in the United States, Professional Responsibility for Lawyers is a rigorous and accessible treatment of the law and ethics of legal practice, weaving together statutes, rules, case law, ethics opinions, and secondary authorities to illuminate the standards that define a lawyer’s professional obligations.

Organized into fourteen clear and practical chapters, the book guides readers through the core duties of communication, competence, loyalty, confidentiality, and financial integrity, while also engaging with contemporary challenges such as legal technology and the growing role of private capital in the profession. Each chapter combines careful doctrinal analysis with practical insights drawn from real-world lawyering, making complex rules intelligible without sacrificing depth.

Key Features:

  • A systematic exploration of the regulatory architecture governing lawyers across jurisdictions
  • A synthesis of disciplinary rules and fiduciary obligations as they converge in practice
  • Detailed treatment of attorney-client relationships, conflicts of interest, and duties to courts, clients, and third parties
  • Consideration of emerging issues in artificial intelligence, legal innovation, and the future of professional regulation

Written with clarity and authority, this book provides both a practical reference for lawyers, in-house counsel, and judges and a foundational text for law students. It equips readers not only to understand the governing standards of professional responsibility, but also to navigate the risks and realities of modern legal practice.
