  • Formal Opinion
    · :. - FORMAL ETHICS OPINION NO. 127 The Idaho State Bar Committee on Ethics and Professional Responsibility has been requested to render an opinion concerning the propriety of a J.a1Al'yer placing telephone calls to residents of the lawyer's area of practice, selected at random, as a follow up to an advertisement distributed to the public at large. The advertisement says in part: H$25.00 cash if we call your number and you can answer two questions about this page. We will make random callsH. The specific question is whether placing the random calls would violate the Idaho Rules of Professional Conduct. Rule 7.3 of the Idaho Rules of Professional Conduct is controlling: Direct contact with Prospective Clients A lawyer may not solicit professional employment from a prospective client with whom the lawyer has no family or prior professional relationship, by mail, in-person or otherwise, when a significant motive for the lawyer's doing so is the lawyer's pecuniary gain. The term HsolicitH includes contact in person, by telephone or telegraph, by letter or other writing, or by other communication directed to a specific recipient, but does not include letters addressed or advertising circulars distributed generally to persons not known to need legal services of the kind provided by the lawyer in a particular matter, but who are so situated that they might in general find such services useful. ETHICS OPINION - 1 The Supreme Court of the united States held, in Ohralik vs. Ohio State Bar Association, 436 U.S. 447 (1978), that a State may categorically ban in-person solicitation by lawyers for pecuniary gain.

  • Introduction
    INTRODUCTION Nationally, approximately 40% of new attorneys work at firms consisting of more than 50 lawyers. Therefore, a large percentage of practicing attorneys work for small firms (fewer than 50 attorneys). Small firms generally do not have formalized recruiting procedures or a set “hiring season” when they recruit summer law clerks, school-year law clerks, or entry-level attorneys. Instead, these firms hire on an as-needed basis, and they hire year round. To secure employment with a small firm, students and lawyers alike need to be proactive in getting their name and interests out in the community. Applicants should not only apply directly to these firms, but they should connect via law school, community, and bar association activities. In this directory, you will find state-by-state hyperlinks to regional directories, bar associations, newspapers, and job banks that can be used to jump-start a small firm search.

Joseph, Sr. and Freddy Ortiz, Jr. (collectively, the “PBA/LESU”). The Legislature contends that disqualification is appropriate because Attorney DeWood wrongfully communicated with members of the Legislature in violation of Rule 4.2 of the ABA Model Rules of Professional Conduct. Plaintiffs opposes the motion, arguing that any contacts that occurred were prior to the initiation of the lawsuit and therefore outside the scope of Rule 4.2, or were otherwise authorized pursuant to Rule 4.2.
