Ohio Attorneys Must Discuss Six things with Clients

The new code of professional responsibility for lawyers mandates that they discuss Six things with clients.

1 The nature and scope of the representation.

An example could be " I will represent you in you car accident claim against the party that caused the accident to seek fair compensation for your injuries.

2 The basis or rate of the fees and expenses.

With regard to contingent fees this must be in writing and a closing statement provided and signed by the attorney and client.

3 The means to accomplish the client's objective.

Thus in a personal injury case you need to discuss how you will accomplish a monetary recovery and alternative dispute resolution should be discussed.

4. The status of the matter

You must make an affirmative effort to let the client know what you are doing and promptly return attempts by the client for communication.

5 Information to help the client make informed decisions

When settlement negotiations start it is always a good idea to research prior jury verdicts so the potential evaluation can be made .

6. Decisions requiring the clients's informed consent.

The advice and the waiver often must be in writing.


The new rules stress clent communication . Always a good idea.
