Law of Lawyering
Students in their fifth semester take the required
Law of Lawyering Class. Law of Lawyering is primarily concerned
with the ethical and legal regulation of the legal profession
and covers such topics as conflicts of interests, confidentiality,
attorney-client privilege, malpractice, lawyer-client decision-making,
and other similar issues. The various rules studied are the rules
most frequently encountered by all practitioners. In addition
to studying ethical and legal regulation, this course also addresses
the ethics of law practice more generally. This course is required
by the Law School, by the Georgia Supreme Court, and by the American
Bar Association.
