Chapter 7: Fraud

Chapter 8: Crime

Chapter 14: A Reprise

Chapter 15: The Constitution

The fourth series of five notes, entitled Practice Pointers, offers you practical advice

about how to avoid or mitigate the legal consequences raised by the problems, cases, and

other materials.

Chapter 3: Nonengagement, Engagement, and Disengagement Letters

Chapter 11: Implementing a Conflicts Control System

Chapter 12: Trust Fund Management

Chapter 13: Wrongful Discharge

Chapter 15: The Globalization of Law Practice

The final set of notes focuses on Lawyers and Clients in five common practice settings.

Here, we examine specialized legal regulation of the client’s rights and responsibilities,

which in turn shapes, enhances, and also can limit a lawyer’s advocacy on behalf of the

client.

Chapter 3: Service Pro Bono Publico

Chapter 5: Criminal Defense

Chapter 9: Representing Organizations

Chapter 10: Insurance Defense

Chapter 11: Representing Governments

The Combination

Overall, we intend the rules, cases, problems, stories, and continuing notes in this book

to serve as a guide to identifying, understanding, and avoiding the minefields and mistakes

that the lawyers in these materials have confronted. We also hope you enjoy this study as

much as we have enjoyed preparing it.
