The traditional pedagogical approach uses a mixture of narrative and descriptive content, edited cases and ethics opinions, discussion questions, and problems. Professors and students will benefit from: A basic introduction to professional responsibility, with a focus on business and transactional lawyers Thorough explanations of rules and concepts Cases carefully edited to clarify the court’s discussion of ethical issues relevant to the chapter topics Textual material provides a foundational understanding of the fundamental topics, allowing the instructor to focus on more difficult material during class time Notes and questions highlight important aspects of each case and prepare students for class discussion Review problems at the end of each chapter – provide a brief overview of material already covered and help students prepare for the exam Appropriate not only for future transactional lawyers, but also for future litigators The instructor can choose to place or more or less emphasis on the transactional components of the casebook
