Does an attorney have a duty to disclose his filing of a personal
Hi mates:
Hope everyone is starting the year off healthy, wealthy and a little wiser.
Question for those wiser than I (which doesn't take much, but hopefully I'll
get there):
Does an attorney, who is representing a client on a contingency basis, have
a duty to disclose his filing of personal bankruptcy to his client? (filed
during representation). Not sure if the contingency basis matters, but this
is how he posed the question to me.
Based upon Rule of Professional Conduct? case law?
Thanks,
