Re: A lawyer's ehthics
Often there is no reason to contact the client when they are in jail on a MRP because they will be meeting with their Lawyer when they go to court. It is unfortunate that this is the normal. If your brother-in-Law wants another Lawyer he should try to hire one that will work with him on payments.
