An office wants you to read ten court opinions for the case of a current client. The choices are (1) traveling to a large law office in the city that has all of the bound volumes, (2) using case databases on Westlaw or on LexisNexis or (3) using the case databases on Google Scholar. What is the most ethical decision the office can make when faced with these choices? Cite and apply relevant ethical rules. (See Chapter 5 and the ethics code of your state in Appendix D.)
Discuss how the use of Litigation Support, Case Management and Knowledge Management software can protect the attorney from ethical breaches. Cite applicable ABA Model Rules.
