Reference: Referência Reference information: "In general, a lawyer may be liable to the client in a civil action for breach of fiduciary duty when the lawyer selfishly places his or her own interests ahead of those of the client and the client suffers damages as a result. A violation of the attorney’s duty of undivided loyalty occurs when the interests of the attorney become adverse to those of the client, such as a conflict of interest with another current or former client." http://www.iicle.com/links/AttorneysLegalLiability12-Ch7.pdf |
