Overview
Pierson Ferdinand’s Legal Ethics and Professional Responsibility Team brings decades of experience in advising lawyers and law firms on a global scale concerning all aspects of the legal regulations governing the legal profession.
Experience
We offer guidance and support encompassing every facet of the Rules of Professional Conduct in various states and similar professional regulations worldwide. Our services extend to addressing the full spectrum of practice and business-related challenges encountered by law firms, including law firm formation, non-lawyer ownership of law firms, conflicts of interest, bar admission, professional discipline, law practice risk management, and the role of law firm general counsel. Additionally, our team of defense lawyers specializes in professional malpractice and related claims, as well as serving as expert witnesses in cases involving disqualification and malpractice.
Lawyers themselves sometimes require legal guidance, and our team is well-equipped to assist with all aspects of representing law firms and lawyers. Our approach is marked by efficiency and directness, allowing our law firm and lawyer clients to not only resolve their immediate concerns but also proactively prevent similar issues from arising in the future.
