  1. Frank Dunn - Business Lawyer, Corporate and Contracts Law From My name is Frank Dunn, I am an experienced lawyer who is committed to excellence. Having practiced as a litigator and a commercial lawyer, I am able to provide clients with actionable legal guidance and top-quality services across a wide range of areas. In particular, I have advised clients in industries such as retail, education, real estate and financial services.

  2. Professional ResponsibilityAreas Of Professional Responsibility Each of the many areas of lawyer responsibility contains a discrete category of ethical concerns. These areas can be organized as the lawyer-client relationship, the lawyer as counselor, the lawyer as advocate, transactions with persons other than clients, law firms and associations, public service, information about legal services, and the integrity of the profession.

  3. Lawyer-Client Relationship A lawyer must follow certain ethical standards when working with a client. A lawyer must be reasonably skilled in order to represent a client on a legal matter. Though a lawyer may work on legal matters unrelated to his or her usual practice, they may not charge the client for extra time studying to become competent in that area of the law.

  4. Lawyer as Counselor A lawyer serves varied roles, including that of counselor. As a counselor, a lawyer renders candid advice that may refer to factors apart from the law, including moral, economic, social, and political issues relevant to the client's situation. A lawyer may act as a mediator between multiple clients but only if each client consents and the mediation can be done impartially without affecting the lawyer's responsibilities to any of the clients. Lawyer as Advocate A lawyer is required to be an advocate for the client. This is an important obligation because U.S. law is based on the ADVERSARY SYSTEM, which gives competing litigants the principal responsibility for gathering evidence, formulating legal theories, and presenting evidence and theories at trial to a judge and jury.
