In this course Ronald Minkoff, a noted expert in the area of attorney ethics and professional responsibility, provides a guided tour through the various conflict of interest provisions of the Model Rules and the New York Code of Professional Responsibility. Using problems based on real life experiences, Mr. Minkoff explores such issues as, when is there a conflict between those forming a new business? Is a client a current client or a former client? Has a proper waiver been obtained? The course goes far beyond the rules themselves, delving into forefront issues raised by recent cases, including attorney screening and corporate family conflicts.
