Book excerpt: This brief thoughtful overview of professional responsibility issues can be used along side any professional responsibility casebook key cases and effective problems help students probe the lawyer's obligations to clients, The legal system, third parties, And The public. Crystal draws on legal, professional, and ethical standards to describe and critically examine significant principles and rules that constrain professional conduct. He skillfully integrates a practical discussion of the source of these repsonibilities -- ABA Codes, Ethics Advisory Opinions, specific states codes and practice norms, statutory law, and case decisions -- with careful consideration of the policy implications of professional responsibility. Tackling the most important subjects one at a time, Introduction to Professional Responsibility opens with an introductory chapter on the scope of lawyer's obligations, then progresses to: the Lawyer-Client relationship Loyalty, including actual and potential conflicts of interest Confidentiality Zealousness and Its Limits Delivery of Legal services Lawyers in Public Positions: Judges and Government Lawyers As students explore the philosophy of lawyering through the pages of this book, they will also confront basic principles of ethics and morality. Thoroughly researched, well written, and soundly reasoned, Introduction to Professional Responsibility helps future lawyers recognize that professional conduct has deeper, more important dimensions than mere technical competence.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What can law firms do to ensure justice for all? How can they serve the needs of those unable to pay? How can law firms improve the quality of life for their lawyers? At a time when government support for legal aid is limited and under fire, when recent U.S. presidents have urged increased volunteerism, when the American Bar Association's Law Firm Pro Bono Challenge is under way, and when some within the legal profession have called for mandatory pro bono work, this new book examines these important questions. The Law Firm and the Public Good blends academic scholarship with real world experience as it brings together lawyers who have wrestled with the pressures of everyday practice. Concerned about deepening the commitment of large law firms to the wider community, the authors seek to provide a blueprint for firms concerned with creating, developing, implementing, and evaluating pro bono programs. Moving beyond the ethical arguments which justify a law firm's commitment to community service, the authors argue that pro bono work is in the firm's self-interest. They show that a heightened concern with the public good can improve a lawyer's spirit, sharpen lawyering skills, and enhance the humanistic traditions of law practice. They conclude that professional responsibility and self-interest support the same conclusion: that the law firm and the public good are inextricably linked and that each can draw strength from the other in ways that nourish both.
