This completely revised edition now includes new chapters on conflicts of interest and accidental and impromptu clients, and also provides a wider discussion of social media ethics in a focused chapter on this evolving topic. All other chapters have been substantially updated and, in some cases, prudently condensed for ease of use and provide ample citations to authority to guide readers in their own research.
Each chapter covers a key aspect of litigation in depth, compartmentalizing the subjects so that readers do not have to jump back and forth between chapters to understand the principles and rules in play. Topics covered include:
Conflicts of interest
Pre-suit investigation and frivolous claims
Surreptitious investigations and discovery
Compensating fact witnesses
Ex parte communications
Civility and candor
False testimony by clients and witnesses
Lawyers as witnesses
Negotiation and settlement
Social media
Accidental and impromptu clients
Ethics on appeal, and more
