MCLE: The Proposed Rules of Professional Conduct………………………………………………..17
By Neil J. Wertlieb
The author provides an extremely useful introduction to the new set of Rules of Professional Conduct that have been presented to the California Supreme Court for approval. The proposed Rules reflect a comprehensive revision of the existing Rules, and the author discusses both proposed changes to current law and ways in which the proposed Rules differ from the Model Rules that have been adopted in virtually every other state in the country.
