Description

Annotated Standards for Imposing Lawyer Sanctions 2nd Edition Ellyn S Rosen ISBN 9781641053839

For lawyer discipline to achieve its intended purpose, sanctions must be grounded in clearly defined and consistently applied standards. Sanctions that are too lenient may fail to deter misconduct, eroding public trust in the legal profession, while overly harsh sanctions can undermine confidence in the system and discourage lawyers from reporting ethical violations by their peers. Inconsistencies in sanctions—whether within a single jurisdiction or across multiple jurisdictions—can cast doubt on both the fairness and effectiveness of disciplinary processes.

This edition offers an authoritative and practical analysis of the cases and legal authorities essential to understanding the application of the black-letter Standards. It is an indispensable resource for state supreme courts, lawyer disciplinary counsel, and adjudicators responsible for administering and evaluating lawyer discipline.
