The Supreme Court of Ohio will accept public comment until Sept. 24 about a publication that provides practical information about the lawyer-client relationship.
A joint project of the Supreme Court’s Clients’ Security Fund and Commission on Professionalism, the guide is intended to promote the public’s confidence in the integrity of the legal profession in Ohio.
In easy-to-understand terms, it is hoped that Ohioans can use this guide for help in finding a lawyer, what to expect after hiring a lawyer and how to avoid problems in the lawyer-client relationship.
Please visit http://www.supremecourtofohio.gov/RuleAmendments/ for the text of the proposed guide. Comments on the proposed guide should be submitted in writing to: Janet Green Marbley, Administrator of the Clients’ Security Fund, Supreme Court of Ohio, 65 South Front Street, 5th Floor, Columbus, Ohio 43215, or marbleyj@sconet.state.oh.us or Lori Keating, Secretary to the Commission on Professionalism, at the same address or keatingl@sconet.state.oh.us.
