You need to address the problem from a national perspective, as it is

Guys, this is such a great thread to quote that please tell me, anyone,
if you don't want to be quoted.
I would prefer not to be quoted in this thread, since my off-the-cuff
(and usually unedited) prose really isn't up to professional standards.
Besides, if you are willing to trudge through law review articles,
there are plenty of judges who have publicly criticized the system.

Justice misconduct news clips and article annotations: Volume III
Preface: This rich source of information relating to judicial misconduct
comes from the Brennan Center For Justice at the NYU School of Law. As an
annotated bibliography, it highlights media and journal reviews that are
certainly worth thumbing through. In its entirety, readers will find all
sorts of troubling clips along with references dating back to 2000. It's not
an exhaustive compilation but a great review. We had to separate it into 3
volumes because of its girth. If you are looking for a particular reference,
have a keyword, or have only the judge's name, use the Control F command.
Remember, there are 3 volumes.

As we approach Law Day, bar associations across the nation will be heard
congratulating themselves on all they do to promote justice and protect the
public.
(see our post) At this weblog, "we" think such self-aggrandizement should
be
avoided in favor of a bit of soul-searching. Most bar groups spend much of
their time acting like guilds -- promoting the interests of their members,
and
"protecting" the public from competition, information, innovation and
choice. Maybe
Law Day 2005 (May 1st) can be an occasion to re-align our priorities and
become
public service organizations, improving the profession for the sake of our
clients,
the justice system and the entire public.

The Bar's Dirty Little Not-So-S
Carolyn Elefant writes: This month, the ABA Journal picks up
the issue of whether bar commissions investigate and sanction solos and
small law firms more frequently than their large firm colleagues in Picking
on The Little Guy: Perception Lingers that Discipline Falls Hardest on Small
Firms by Mark Hansen. Though the author collects a variety of views on the
the disparate disclipline issue, ultimately, the article tows the party line
that (1) evidence of disparate discipline is inconclusive; (2) to the extent
that disparity exists, it can be explained by the fact that solo and small
firm practice handles a greater client volume, thus, making them more likely
to be targets of client complaints and (3) even if bias does exist, it's
unintentional. Finally, the article dispenses the usual pap for solos and
small firm lawyers: keep an eye on deadlines, put records and writing, find
a mentor and take advantage of the law practice management courses offered
by the bar. Enough!
Though hardly a scientific study, over the past few months, we
at MyShingle.com have monitored cases involving attorney misconduct and
here's what we've observed: (1) there are blatant, almost unconscionable
examples of situations where bar associations have overlooked misconduct by
large firms while pursued small firms with an unexplained vengeance; (2)
large firms and small firms alike commit errors and take advantage of
clients - but large firm clients sue their former lawyers for breach of
fiduciary duty or malpractice while small firm clients, for want of
resources, file bar complaints; (3) even where small firms are sued and pay
compensation for their wrongs, judges still often refer them to the bar for
additional and unnecessary disciplinary action and (4) because clients incur
no cost whatsoever to file a complaint, many do so over minor issues which
may at best constitute a technical violation of the Code of Professional
Responsibility but would not be worth pursuing if there were some cost, even
a de minimus amount.

The Reason for Victims of The System
In January, 1994 my husband and I retained two attorneys, Ronald C.
Kopplow and Marc Cooper, to pursue a malpractice claim against our former
certified public accountants, the firm of Morrison, Brown, Argiz & Co.
Messrs. Kopplow and Cooper committed gross negligence and severe ethical
violations in handling the malpractice claim, and in so doing, caused us
financial ruin, including the loss of our successful company of many years,
Baron's Stores, Inc. To recover for their gross negligence and civil
violations against us, a legal malpractice lawsuit was filed on our behalf
against Messrs. Kopplow and Cooper on September 7, 1999 in Dade County,
Florida.

GETTING TOO CLOSE TO A CLOSELY HELD CORPORATION
by
Bruce T. Eisenhut, Assistant Bar Counsel
The representation of closely held corporations presents a number of
complex conflict of interest issues. Conflicts that arise when attorneys for
small businesses intertwine their own personal or financial interests with
the prospects of the business by owning stock (either as fees or an
investment) or become involved in management. In such situations, the
potential damage to the client, to the lawyer and to the legal profession,
often outweighs the potential for personal or pecuniary gain.

Dear Justice Harding,
I am presenting this to you as a citizen of the state of Florida, who
is not an attorney, but has been wronged by attorneys. I hope that what I am
presenting to you is clear and forgive me if I have not used the proper
terminology or language although I have tried my hardest to do so.
Enclosed is documentation of the basis of my complaint against
attorneys, Ronald C. Kopplow and Marc Cooper as presented to The Florida Bar
in accordance with their prescribed method of filing a grievance. In
addition I have provided you with a Chronology of Actions and a list of the
standards which I believe these attorneys have violated.

Ethics Opinion 98: Dual Practice, 12/14/96
The following Formal Opinion was written by
the Ethics Committee of the Colorado Bar Association
8 DUAL PRACTICE
Adopted December 14, 1996.
Introduction and Scope
The Ethics Committee of the Colorado Bar Association has
received a number of inquiries from lawyers concerning the ethical propriety
of lawyers practicing law and being actively involved in one or more
separate professions or businesses. It is not possible to write an ethics
opinion covering every conceivable separate business in which lawyers may
become involved in addition to their law practice. Therefore, this opinion
will provide general principles intended to assist lawyers in determining
whether and how they may conduct these separate businesses without violating
the Colorado Rules of Professional Conduct ("Rules"). Then, by way of
example, this opinion will discuss specific ethical considerations
applicable to lawyers acting as agents of title insurance companies.

And see:
in the emergence of consumer law is that while its protections
reach a wide range of economic activity, as varied as credit card purchases
and charitable giving, it has largely failed to reach a sector where
consumers spend billions of dollars each year - legal services. Because the
practice of law is considered a profession and attorneys are licensed by the
judicial branch of government, a system of self-regulation has emerged over
the past two hundred years. Not only has this system utterly failed to
protect consumers, but its existence has prevented the development of other,
more effective, safeguards for those who use legal services. In addition,
the system of attorney self-regulation has been abused to maintain a
monopoly on the delivery of legal services, which denies consumers the
ability to choose more affordable alternatives to hiring a lawyer. This
paper assesses the current system of attorney self-regulation and its impact
upon consumer rights, and suggests possible reforms to empower and protect
consumers of legal services.
