FAQ

The first answer is that an attorney-client relationship ends upon the happening of one of three events: the first is the attorney moves to withdraw and the judge grants withdrawal, the second is the client consents the attorney off the case, and the last is that the case has ended.

If someone other than the lawyer or client is present during a confidential conversation, information shared in that conversation no longer qualifies as privileged communication and may be used as evidence in court if necessary.

For example, if a lawyer is asked to represent the seller of a business in negotiations with a buyer represented by the lawyer, not in the same transaction but in another, unrelated matter, the lawyer could not undertake the representation without the informed consent of each client.

Rule 4.2 - Communication with Persons Represented by Counsel (a) General Rule. In representing a client , a lawyer shall not communicate about the subject of the representation with a person the lawyer knows to be represented by another lawyer in the matter, unless the lawyer has the consent of the other lawyer.

Rule 1.16 requires you to withdraw if the representation will cause you to violate the rules, if the client insists on a course of action that you reasonably believe is criminal or fraudulent, or if the client is using your services to perpetrate a crime or fraud.

A conflict of interest refers to the ethical problems that may arise between parties with a preexisting relationship. In law, a conflict of interest arises between an attorney and a client if the interests of the attorney, a different client, or a third-party conflict with the interests of the present client.

California. Cal. Government Code § 87100, 87103. A conflict of interest exists if a legislator uses their official position to influence a governmental decision in which they know they, an immediate family member or a business they are associated with have a financial interest .

The true test of verifying whether a matter is just a potentially perceived conflict of interest, or an actual conflict of interest, is disclosure. When it comes to conflicts of interest, appearance is as important as reality. This is why disclosing conflicts of interest is important.

A conflict check is an investigation to see if the interests of a past or current client of the attorney and/or their law firm interfere with your interests, the potential client. If a conflict is found it usually means the attorney cannot represent you because they owe a duty of loyalty to a past or former client.
