times by your lawyer and the other lawyers and personnel in your lawyer's
office.

competently and diligently, in accordance with the highest standards of the
profession. If you are not satisfied with how your matter is being handled,

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

undivided loyalty uncompromised by conflicts of interest.

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).

have your secrets and confidences preserved to the extent permitted by law.

ethically in accordance with the Code of Professional Responsibility.
