PROFESSIONALISM

 There is a "professionalism survey" being conducted and the topic alone is fodder for a dozen blog posts. So let's just get to it, but first, DIDJA KNOW that if you're a member of a law firm and your partner files a notice of appearance for a defendant and asks you to visit the client at DCJ or any of the local jails, Miami Dade Corrections will NOT let you see the client because YOU (as opposed to your firm) are, in their considered legal opinion, not representing the client. Thanks to an alert reader who sent us this disturbing information. 

Anything anyone wants to do about this ridiculous state of affairs? 

PROFESSIONALISM SURVEY 

The Miami Dade Bar Association (Motto: "Rumpole may not join") is conducting a Professionalism Survey. 

DO NOT log on and answer the questions as you think the late, great, Alex Michaels would have done so ( we already did it). 

Just answer honestly. Really, We mean it. 

The SURVEY IS HERE.


And last but not least, no professionalism discussion is complete without remembering that on this date in 2007 we lost one of the all-time great REGJB lawyers and people: Sy Gaer. We miss him.
