Overview

The toughest ethical issues for lawyers aren't the ones that come up on law school exams. Practicing lawyers have more practical questions, such as: (1) when may I finally shred my closed files? (2) what magic words do I need to make the arbitration clause in my engagement agreement enforceable? (3) how can I use social media to enhance my reputation rather than to ruin it? (4) what are the 10 ways to avoid disciplinary complaints? (5) what are the 8 keys to a compliant law firm website? Louisiana Legal Ethics: Standards & Commentary (2016), is a newly-updated compendium of Louisiana legal ethics standards. It includes the full text of the Louisiana Rules of Professional Conduct, annotations addressing the history and adoption of each rule, ABA comments, and important Louisiana case law through December 2015. Finally, it includes materials on professionalism and answers to frequently asked legal ethics questions. Dane S. Ciolino edits and annotates this book. He serves as the Alvin R. Christovich Distinguished Professor of Law at Loyola University New Orleans College of Law, where he teaches legal ethics, advocacy, and evidence.
