    THE STATE BAR OF CALIFORNIA STANDING COMMITTEE ON PROFESSIONAL RESPONSIBILITY AND CONDUCT FORMAL OPINION NO. 2004-165 ISSUE: 1. What are the ethical responsibilities of a member of the California State Bar who uses outside contract lawyers to make appearances on behalf of the member’s clients? 2. What are the ethical responsibilities of the outside contract lawyer who makes the appearances? DIGEST: 1. To comply with his or her ethical responsibilities, a member of the California State Bar who uses an outside contract lawyer to make appearances on behalf of the member’s client must disclose to his client the fact of the arrangement between the member and the outside lawyer when the use of the outside lawyer constitutes a significant development in the matter. Whether the use of the outside lawyer constitutes a significant development will depend upon the circumstances in each situation. If, at the outset of the engagement, the member anticipates using outside lawyers to make appearances on behalf of the member’s client, the member should address the issue in the written fee agreement with the client. If the member charges the outside lawyer’s fees and costs to the client as a disbursement, the member must state the client’s obligations for those charges in the written fee agreement. In addition, the member remains responsible to the client, which includes responsibility for competently supervising the outside lawyer. Finally, the member must comply with the ethical rules concerning competence, confidentiality, advertising, and conflicts of interest that apply to his or her role in any such arrangement.

    THE STATE BAR OF CALIFORNIA STANDING COMMITTEE ON PROFESSIONAL RESPONSIBILITY AND CONDUCT FORMAL OPINION INTERIM NO. 08-0002 ISSUES: Does an attorney violate the duties of confidentiality and competence he or she owes to a client by using technology to transmit or store confidential client information when the technology may be susceptible to unauthorized access by third parties? DIGEST: Whether an attorney violates his or her duties of confidentiality and competence when using technology to transmit or store confidential client information will depend on the particular technology being used and the circumstances surrounding such use. Before using a particular technology in the course of representing a client, an attorney must take appropriate steps to evaluate: 1) the level of security attendant to the use of that technology, including whether reasonable precautions may be taken when using the technology to increase the level of security; 2) the legal ramifications to a third party who intercepts, accesses or exceeds authorized use of the electronic information; 3) the degree of sensitivity of the information; 4) the possible impact on the client of an inadvertent disclosure of privileged or confidential information or work product; 5) the urgency of the situation; and 6) the client‟s instructions and circumstances, such as access by others to the client‟s devices and communications. AUTHORITIES INTERPRETED: Rule 3-100 of the Rules of Professional Conduct of the State Bar of California. Rule 3-110 of the Rules of Professional Conduct of the State Bar of California.
