Anthony Davis Authors "Legal Ethics 'Through The Looking Glass'" in the New York Law Journal
Anthony E. Davis authored the article "Legal Ethics 'Through The Looking Glass'" for the New York Law Journal, which reports on a recent case that underscores the risks of succumbing to the temptation to respond online to derogatory client postings. The article then critiques a series of ethics opinions that set inconsistent standards for lawyers seeking to partner or share fees with non-lawyers that give different outcomes depending solely on where a lawyer is physically based, and points to the need for a change in the rules of professional conduct that would balance the removal of the barriers to these arrangements while also protecting the interests of the public.
