Conflicts with Lying Clients

 
Rule 1.7 deals with the general rules of current clients. Lawyers cannot represent a client that would adversely affect another client. For example, a lawyer cannot represent the buyer and the seller. When dealing with a corporation there is the possibility of a conflict of interest in representing the corporation and an individual officer within the corporation. Lawyers would need to be cautious when dealing with those types of circumstances.

In this 8-minute video our speaker, John A. Snow, discusses several examples of situations where lawyers are faced with determining who they can represent while concurrently representing a related organization. He also reviews the specific rules of Rule 1.8 and Rule 1.18.

John A. Snow is an attorney with Prince Yeates. His practice consists of general civil litigation, including commercial, professional malpractice, construction, insurance coverage and defense. Mr. Snow is the chair of the Ethics Advisory Opinion Committee of the Utah State Bar.
