Regulation of Lawyers: Problems of Law and Ethics, 12th edition goes beyond the rules in teaching students the subtle differences between proper and improper conduct. Writing in his direct and lively style, Stephen Gillers explores the subtleties and nuances of the legal and ethical rules governing lawyers and judges. From great teaching cases, timely materials, and realistic problems, students come away with new insight, equipped to detect and avoid improper conduct over the course of their professional careers. Refined through years of classroom use, this casebook also offers comprehensive coverage, a balanced mix of materials, discussion beyond the rules and from different perspectives, detailed notes, and an accessible and engaging style.

New to the Twelfth Edition:

  • McCoy v. Louisiana on allocation of decisionmaking authority between lawyer and client (U.S. Supreme Court 2018).
  • Material on the criticism of Prof. Ronald S. Sullivan, Jr. for joining the Harvey Weinstein defense.
  • Discussion of the debate over Rule 8.4(g), which forbids bias and harassment in law practice. Three problems test its application and First Amendment limits.

  • Enhanced material on challenges to the bar's monopoly on the sale of for- profit legal services.
