Understand how to handle client requests and where to draw the line.
Client management is one of the most difficult aspects of lawyering. But beyond the obvious business issues that come up in dealing with your clients (whether you are outside counsel or in-house), client management issues also raise significant ethical concerns that must be considered and addressed. Common ethical issues include how to properly define the scope of your representation, how to deal with disagreements regarding legal strategy, how to communicate with your clients when you have a disagreement with a client regarding the case, and when (and how) to ethically withdraw from a representation. This topic will discuss the applicable Model Rules of Professional Conduct and provide the best practices for how to deal with the often difficult world of navigating client requests.
