Professional Responsibility professors often struggle to engage students in this required course—one that many students wouldn’t otherwise have chosen to take—covering material that simultaneously appears both obvious and intricately technical. This coursebook responds to these challenges with a fresh look at teaching and learning PR. Instead of containing the impenetrable cases typical of PR casebooks, which force students and teachers to sort out convoluted facts and incomplete or out-of-date analysis, this book “flips the classroom” by providing detailed explanations of the Model Rules, accompanied by problems for class discussion that require students to explore how the Rules apply in real-world situations. This structure lends itself easily to use in both in-person and online courses. The book’s explanations are focused on building statutory interpretation skills, and then bringing these skills to common practice scenarios and exploring both the legal and the practical demands they present. Discussion covers all aspects of the law governing lawyers, from professional discipline to civil liability to court sanctions, as well as informal concerns, such as misconduct’s potential effects on both client relations and the business of law practice.
