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.
