The Illinois State Bar Association’s Board of Governors approved three new Professional Conduct Advisory Opinions on May 15 during its regularly scheduled Board meeting.
The opinions address the duties of an in-house counsel when confronted with conduct that may be harmful to his or her employer; the prohibition on a lawyer threatening criminal charges to gain an advantage in a civil matter; and the propriety of a firm name of “X and Y” when one of the named lawyers has changed careers and no longer practices law.
Many of us find ourselves sharing our workspaces with new “co-workers” during Illinois’ stay-at-home order. We want to see yours!

The winning Instagram post and account will be featured on the ISBA's social media channels and in The Bar News.
