If you commit an ethical violation, is your supervising lawyer going to be sanctioned by the bar or state Supreme Court? Why or why not? Is this, in your opinion, a good outcome?

What will be an ideal response?


It is entirely possible that your supervising attorney will be sanctioned. It is the attorney’s job to always supervise staff fully. When a paralegal or other staff member commits a violation, it often is for lack of supervision by the attorney.
