Book Description
This case file contains a four count disciplinary action brought by the Nita State Bar against the respondent, Harriet Cooperman, a member of the Nita State Bar. The Bar alleges that Cooperman failed to adequately consult with her client, David Engles, during the course of his action against the Acme Paper Company. The Bar also states: Cooperman failed to adequately explain the contents of her fee agreement; she represented clients with conflicting interests without first obtaining the informed consent; and finally, she represented a client against a former client in a cause of action. The appendix contains the American Bar Association Rules of Professional Conduct applicable to this case. There are three witnesses for both the State Bar and the respondent.
