More than any other class you will take during your time in law school, this course is about you and your future. The course is designed to acquaint you with lawyers obligations—both as individuals and as members of the legal profession—to the world in which they live. In addition to a discussion of ethical concerns inherent in the practice of law, we will cover lawyer regulation including the Model Rules of Professional Conduct. We also will consider what it means for you to become a member of the legal profession at a time of economic pressure, technological advancement, and international competition. A lawyer’s work largely turns upon relationships, namely between the lawyer and client, but also in the connections made with fellow lawyers, other professionals and society in general. This course is your opportunity to reflect upon the lawyer you will become as you build these relationships over the coming years. I consider it my professional responsibility to do all that I can in this course to ensure that you will be well-equipped for a rewarding and meaningful career in the law. I ask excellence from you; you should expect the same from me.  \nThis course provides an overview of the professional responsibility of lawyers, exploring common ethical problems that lawyers encounter in practice. This course will be taught primarily through the hypotheticals found in the casebook. The hypotheticals are in the form of multiple-choice questions, which conform to the style of the Multi-State Professional Responsibility Exam (MPRE) . Our course materials will include topics such as what the ABA MODEL RULES OF PROFESSIONAL CONDUCT require, state variations that are common, the wisdom of various policy choices, how the rules might apply to a hypothetical fact pattern, the pressures that might cause a lawyer to ignore regulatory rules, and the steps that you or others might take to better serve clients and to minimize the chance of a regulatory violation. Although we will study some additional materials, the ABA MODEL RULES OF PROFESSIONAL CONDUCT will be the primary source of regulation covered in this course.  \nLearning Outcomes. During your time in this course, you will:  \n• Develop knowledge and understanding of the substantive and procedural law regulating lawyers’conduct including advertising, attorney-client privilege, confidentiality, conflicts of interest, duties  \nto the client, fees, obligations to third parties and the legal system, and unauthorized practice of law;  \n• Examine the special ethical rules applied to prosecutors and judges;  \n• Identify and apply the American Bar Association Model Rules of Professional Conduct in preparation for taking the Multistate Professional Responsibility Exam; and  \n• Reflect upon how to integrate conceptions of professionalism and legal ethics into your career.  \nRequired Materials.  \nv You must register for TWEN; I will regularly use TWEN to communicate about the course and to post our weekly assignme","cbCaiiUn6Johyr7H","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiiUn6Johyr7H","pdf",225767,"English","# Organization of the Course\n## Course Description\n## Learning Outcomes\n## Required Materials\n## Optional Materials\n## Our Asynchronous Classroom","[{\"question\":\"本课程主要关注哪些专业责任与法律伦理内容？\",\"answer\":\"课程概述律师的专业责任，讨论律师在执业中常见的伦理问题，并围绕律师义务（个人与职业成员身份）展开。主要监管来源是《ABA Model Rules of Professional Conduct》。\"},{\"question\":\"课程如何帮助学习者为MPRE做准备？\",\"answer\":\"课程主要通过案例书中的假设情境（hypotheticals）教学，这些题目以多项选择题形式呈现，并符合MPRE的风格。学习者需识别并应用ABA Model Rules，以备考多州律师职业责任考试。\"},{\"question\":\"异步课堂的每周作业安排与截止时间是什么？\",\"answer\":\"每周新的“assignment”将在周三上午9AM发布；所有活动与测验须在下周二午夜前完成。逾期不予加分，也没有例外，需尽早完成。\"}]","Professional Responsibility - Online Distance Education Version - Syllabus - Spring 2026 | PDF",1790341528,15]
