Legalwise: Legal Ethics at the Front End: Practical Lessons for Commercial and Contract Lawyers
Aug 2016 |Difficult ethical quagmires can crop up all the way back at the drafting stage. Even worse, they can arise from your client's demands which can lead to a course of action that crosses the line from assisting a client in exercising good business sense to you engaging in unethical behaviour. Nola Pearce, Special Counsel, will be discussing how to protect yourself and your client by knowing what to do when:
- You know the other side is operating on misinformation
- You suspect your client is being less than 100% open
- Your client demands terms in a murky area of potential unconscionability
- You think your client will not adhere to a term
- Your client wants you to take on an additional role to finalise the deal
