Description
Professionalism is a multidimensional concept. Compliance with the Rules of Professional Conduct is a necessary but not sufficient component. Identification of and preparation to handle emerging and unexpected developments through the exercise of sound professional judgment is fundamental. This Briefing will focus on four selected topics in litigation and transaction practice that present challenges to professionalism. The discussion will focus on the Rules of Professional Conduct but will also include references to the Lawyer’s Creed and Aspirational Statement of Professionalism adopted by the Chief Justice’s Commission on Professionalism of the State of Georgia.
