The City and the Cop: Representing Both Without Harming Either
Civil rights lawsuits often include allegations both against a police officers and the City for which the officer works. An attorney assigned to represent both the officer and the City needs to be mindful of the potential for conflicts. "The City and the Cop: Representing Both Without Harming Either" will outline the important rules of professional conduct, where one client's interest may be adverse to another's, and what exceptions allow an attorney to represent both parties without facing the risk of disqualification, including a discussion of Model Rule 1.7.
