(22NYCRR§1210.1)
- You
are entitled to be treated with courtesy and
consideration at all times by your lawyer and
the other lawyers and personnel in your lawyer's
office.
- You
are entitled to an attorney capable of handling
your legal matter competently and diligently, in
accordance with the highest standards of the
profession. If you are not satisfied with how
your matter is being handled, you have the right
to withdraw from the attorney-client
relationship at any time (court approval may be
required in some matters and your attorney may
have a claim against you for the value of
services rendered to you up to the point of
discharge).
- You
are entitled to your lawyer's independent
professional judgment and undivided loyalty
uncompromised by conflicts of interest.
- You
are entitled to be charged a reasonable fee and
to have your lawyer explain at the outset how
the fee will be computed and the manner and
frequency of billing. You are entitled to
request and receive a written itemized bill from
your attorney at reasonable intervals. You may
refuse to enter into any fee arrangement that
you find unsatisfactory. In the event of a fee
dispute, you may have the right to seek
arbitration; your attorney will provide you with
the necessary information regarding arbitration
in the event of a fee dispute, or upon your
request.
- You
are entitled to have your questions and concerns
addressed in a prompt manner and to have your
telephone calls returned promptly.
- You
are entitled to be kept informed as to the
status of your matter and to request and receive
copies of papers. You are entitled to sufficient
information to allow you to participate
meaningfully in the development of your matter.
- You
are entitled to have your legitimate objectives
respected by your attorney, including whether or
not to settle your matter (court approval of a
settlement is required in some matters).
- You
have the right to privacy in your dealings with
your lawyer and to have your secrets and
confidences preserved to the extent permitted by
law.
- You
are entitled to have your attorney conduct
himself or herself ethically in accordance with
the Code of Professional Responsibility.
- You
may not be refused representation on the basis
of race, creed, color, religion, sex, sexual
orientation, age, national origin or disability.
