Multistate Professional Responsibility Exam Practice Question
A lawyer appears before a legislative committee to endorse a proposal. The lawyer is engaged by a partnership that will gain from adoption of the proposal. The lawyer omits mentioning this engagement, and committee members believe the lawyer is offering a personal opinion. What is required of the lawyer?
Disclosure of representation clarifies the lawyer’s role before the legislative committee
Disclosure remains unwarranted when legislative members do not challenge the client’s perspective
There is no legal obligation to discuss a personal benefit to a legislative proposal
Silence is tolerable if acknowledgment of the representation interferes with the client’s advantage
Professional guidelines encourage clarifying one’s role when speaking in nonadjudicative forums. Disclosing the representation helps prevent misunderstandings regarding who the lawyer represents. One choice reflects this clarification principle. Other choices improperly suggest secrecy based on a lack of direct challenge or the lawyer’s desire to protect a client’s advantage.
