Law and Ethics of Lawyering

This casebook provides an overview of the wide range of legal and ethical issues facing lawyers in practice. As did prior editions, the Fifth Edition integrates discussion of the ABA's Model Rules, the ALI's Restatement of the Law Governing Lawyers, as well as case law, statutory law, and regulatory law governing lawyers. Many sections of the book are expanded and updated, including discovery abuse, ethics in electronic discovery, advertising and the Internet, simultaneous representation of corporations and officers, prosecutorial misconduct, and legal advising by government lawyers.
