Legal and Ethical Considerations Client Constraint
Posted by under: Non classé .
However, as with risks at the level of inference, the nature of the attorney-client relationship can make it difficult to resolve ethical dilemmas. Since the client dictates his or her own legal objectives, and because the protagonist and goal-oriented dimensions are composed of parts of the situational model, the lawyer`s attempt to « correct » these dimensions of his client`s model in order to improve his or her understanding may prolong the admissibility of the client relationship. Suppose the mental representation of the client of this LLC is « a meeting with the judge where we do everything we can to ensure that my future ex-wife receives as little money as possible from me. » Should the lawyer try to « improve » the client`s understanding? Or let`s say the client`s brother and two best friends have all gone through and « lost » a chaotic and combative divorce process, and the client is convinced that all divorce judges always rule in favor of the woman. Should the lawyer try to « correct » this belief and experience in order to increase the accuracy of the situational model? The answer to these questions (which, at least to me, is not at all clear) would be left to the lawyer and the court, and whether the understanding of these hypothetical clients ultimately meets the necessary legal standards would also be a legal question. However, ethical assessments within these issues appear to be highly controversial. For example, a large multinational PR company terminated its account with a major tire manufacturer just months after the account was opened. The reason for this was that the tire manufacturer had not told the PR firm that it was aware of defects in its tires that had caused a series of fatal accidents. The PR professionals decided that they could not ethically represent the tire manufacturer in public under such circumstances and terminated their relationship with the company. The public relations firm`s adherence to professional and organizational standards was more important than the revenue that would have been generated by the account with the tire manufacturer. (Miller) Being a socially responsible communicator requires compliance with ethical standards and legal requirements. First, we must distinguish between ethics and law. The professional rules for practising lawyers also show the importance of language comprehension. The American Bar Association`s Model Rules of Professional Conduct (adopted by 49 of the 50 U.S.
states) state that a lawyer is required to communicate with his or her client so that the client can participate in the legal case (ABA Rules 2014). The Model Rules also require a lawyer to provide reasonably competent legal representation and make reasonable efforts to maintain a normal solicitor-client relationship with clients who have a « reduced capacity » to make decisions on the matter (ABA Rules 2014). Taken together, the Model Rules suggest that a competent legal profession requires a reasonable effort to ensure a good linguistic understanding on the part of the client. They also suggest that problems with understanding LLC could compromise the attorney-client relationship and hinder the client`s ability to participate in his or her own representation, both of which are serious ethical concerns. Since violations of professional rules can lead to professional disciplinary proceedings, the ethical concerns associated with language comprehension issues affect not only clients, but also the lawyers who represent them. In summary, U.S. legal norms and ethics rules that explicitly define communication requirements provide a well-defined legal framework against which potential ethical issues related to language comprehension can be assessed. Public relations practitioners, such as advertising specialists, work closely with clients. These associations often lead to legal and ethical decisions when clients and publicists discuss strategies for obtaining information. For example, the Securities and Exchange Commission oversees how companies report their financial affairs and reviews information about stock offerings and financial statements to ensure the accuracy and omission of material facts.
Their goal is to ensure that investors and equity analysts can get accurate information about the companies that offer securities. has. Avoid data breaches. Only a compelling public need can justify an intrusion into an individual`s privacy, and such an intrusion can result in legal sanctions if a source can prove harm. The information that can be found should not necessarily be used in the context of information retrieval. Ethics has been described where the law ends. Both share the goal of creating and preserving social good (Brock & Mastroianni, 2013). Ethics is never isolated, nor is the law. Some issues that have both ethical and legal components are: 4) listening. Interception of another`s conversations, electronically or otherwise, is a form of information theft and may result in wiretap laws or other legal penalties.
