68th Annual Institute 2022: Conflicts of Interest, Unauthorized Practice of Law, Who Is My Client – Ethical Rules Applied to In-House Counsel
The factual situations that give rise to questions involving the application of ethical rules under the ABA Model Rules of Professional Conduct can be very different for in-house counsel as opposed to their counterparts outside. For example, in-house counsel must be very careful as to how they advise executives who may not realize the company is the counsel’s true client. In-house counsel, who may be licensed in only one jurisdiction, also must consider the potential for unauthorized practice of law when they are expected to provide advice in every jurisdiction in which the company operates. And for either ethical or business reasons, in-house counsel may have a very different perspective from outside counsel as to the existence of a conflict and whether it can or should be waived. This presentation examines these and other ethical issues frequently encountered by in-house counsel under the Model Rules and applicable guidance.
