Professional Responsibility in a Global Legal Practice

This course explores the professional and ethical obligations of lawyers in the United States and in other countries. Topics include ethical issues that arise in multinational practices, the organization and regulation of the bar, admissions, advertising and solicitation, client confidentiality, conflicts of interest, and rules of conduct in advocacy. While we will focus much of our attention on the ABA Model Rules of Professional Conduct, we will also survey other sources of law and compare the professional codes of different countries.
