Connecticut Professional Responsibility Lawyers
When a lawyer needs a lawyer, the Ethics and Professional Responsibility Attorneys at Sandak Hennessey & Greco are able to assist.
When an ethics issue arises in the course of a lawyer's practice, it must be resolved as quickly as possible on the most favorable terms permitted by the facts and the law. And like anyone else faced with a legal problem, a lawyer with an ethics issue, whether substantial or meritless, is best served by a fellow lawyer who has the knowledge and experience in the field to provide solid and defensible advice.
The entire arena of ethics can be a minefield for the practicing lawyer. Like other fields of law, lawyer's professional ethics is characterized by a constantly changing landscape. The obligations and the restrictions imposed on lawyers are framed by the statutes, the Rules of Professional Conduct, Court decisions, and written Advisory Opinions issued by Connecticut's Statewide Grievance Committee.
It is simply not enough for a lawyer to make seat-of-the-pants decisions based solely on common sense or logic when addressing any serious issue of legal ethics. Indeed, many provisions of the Rules of Processional Conduct are inconsistent with widely-held views about lawyers' ethical duties and obligations.

- Grievance defense
