An essential resource on lawyer ethics -- revised and updated. The Annotated Model Rules of Professional Conduct is the ABA's definitive single-volume resource for information about lawyer ethics.

Comprehensive and authoritative. Each chapter begins with the rule and its comment, and then presents a detailed discussion of how the rule has been applied. The book gives citations to thousands of court cases, ethics opinions, law review articles, and internet resources, as well as treatises, the Restatement (3rd) of the Law Governing Lawyers, and the legislative history of the Model Rules.

For all jurisdictions and practice settings. The Model Rules of Professional Conduct replaced the Model Code of Professional Responsibility in 1983. In 2002, as a result of the work of Ethics 2000, the ABA adopted across-the-board revisions to the rules. Subsequent amendments to individual rules followed as a result of the work of the ABA's Multijurisdictional Practice Commission and the ABA's Task Force on Corporate Responsibility.
