Compare and contrasting the violations of conduct

Reference no: EM1334763

Looking for help to put together a paper on professional conduct and rules for lawyers. This is for consumers to learn about rules regulating lawyers in U.S that a group of us are trying to develop to help show the reason all states should use ABA rules or have more rules than the ABA not less.

The idea is to write it as a law review journal style article that could be posted as a resource that is interesting read citing the sources used which can be anything from a news paper article, blog, actual rules of law etc

We want to cover the following topics

ABA Rules of Professional Conduct

Development: Circumstances that made rules necessary -why rules were necessary.

When ABA rules were enacted and implemented
What states adopted ABA standards which do not use these rules (for statistical data)

ABA Rules of Professional Conduct
(provide a short list of rules of professional conduct not all just a portion of them)

Professional Conduct Cases of Interest some that really are unbelieveable - cases that drew in media attention or public interest set precedent (interesting ones)

State by state case evaluations â?" Focus: California, two other states
We want to discuss past cases involving repugnant violations of state bar rules of professional conduct

Discuss the similarities and differences in discipline, misconduct and overall outcome of the cases.
Compare and contrast violations of conduct by states featured (three states total is enough)
Present violations reported in past 5 years that captured news headlines or that are of significant interest

Discuss the misconduct process. Discuss complaint process for CA since this is the state we are trying to help change laws in so that they are either equal to those like ABA rules or stronger/more harsh.
