Settlement Ethics
THEDA (TEDDY) SNYDER, ESQ.
Los Angeles, California
Ethics are the moral principles that govern behavior. Every workers’ compensation professional has ethical rules to follow. For attorneys, these are spelled out in the Rules of Professional Conduct, the Business & Professions Code, and sometimes case law. California has some unique laws, but the basic principles governing settlement ethics are mostly the same everywhere.
