Massachusetts Bar Discipline: History, Practice, and Procedure
The purpose of this treatise, Massachusetts Bar Discipline: History, Practice, and Procedure, is to make the law and procedure related to bar discipline more accessible and understandable to the bench, the bar, and the public. While there have been several publications describing the Massachusetts bar discipline process, no work has described it in great detail while also analyzing the sanctions it imposes, and more generally, the Massachusetts Rules of Professional Conduct. Here, important cases are reviewed, rules are explained, and practical pointers abound.
