NY Adopts New Rules of Professional Conduct for Lawyers

Posted on January 5, 2009 by Grace Healy

This is an 'heads up' for New York lawyers. 

As of April 1, 2009, New York lawyers will have new rules of conduct.  The Rules of Professional Conduct -- based on the ABA Model Rules --  will replace the current disciplinary rules. Here is a link to the announcement. 

The announcement highlights some changes and key points in the new rules.  I anticipate that New York City Bar Association and the New York State Bar Association -- and everyone else who gives legal seminars in NY -- will be giving CLE's on this.  The change was announced on December 17, I haven't seen seminars announced, yet.
