Legal Malpractice Waivers & Settlement - Model Rule 1.8(h)
Channel: Professor Stevenson
Date: 2023-12-26

Video lecture for my Professional Responsibility course (and MPRE prep) about Model Rule 1.8(h), which addresses lawyers asking clients up front for waivers of liability, or lawyers trying to settle malpractice claims with otherwise unrepresented clients. This is an updated/redone version of a video I recorded back in 2020.

I have the comments turned off on my channel due to scammers posting marketing ads and trolls posting other inappropriate content. But if you found the video helpful and want to let me know, email me - dstevenson @ stcl.edu
