Nice piece of fish posted:Fun fact: "caught" means horny in norwegian. Which makes that song hilarious. That song is about being horny, but in a very weird way. The "plot" of the song is a guy wants to cheat on his wife so responds to a personal ad in the paper for someone who likes pina coladas and getting caught in the rain, arranges to meet her and it turns out it was his wife trying to cheat on him.

A. Anyone who quotes their IQ, much like weight on driver’s licenses, is off by at least 10. And they are also a douche. B. It’s a catchy tune. But good god they’re both awful humans.

Opposing party in litigation files a grievance against me. Opposing counsel then takes that grievance and says "Here's a settlement offer and a motion to disqualify. It would be good for your client, my client and you if she takes this." That's not loving good, dude. I'm immediately withdrawing.

GrandmaParty posted:Opposing party in litigation files a grievance against me. EDIT: I once had the other party to a JV convince my client to fire me because I insisted that the JV comply with applicable securities laws and regulations. He made all kinds of crazy claims to my client that I was incompetent and unethical. I ended up fired and after I was fired and they retained new joint counsel the entire JV fell apart because the dipshits ran into the problems that I had identified and had been preparing them to address.

gently caress. I'd strongly consider a retaliatory complaint to the bar about illegitimate litigation tactics. I'd also attach that grievance, settlement offer, and proposed motion to disqualify to my immediate motion for sanctions.

You might need to withdraw, but I would definitely speak with attorney services (or whatever your equivalent is) for a legal opinion on the existence of a conflict/your options for lodging a complaint or request for sanctions against OC.

That's a probable disbarment for OC over here, because that's not only in direct violation of ethics statutes, it's tantamount to blackmail. gently caress that dude.

GrandmaParty posted:I think the only thing I can do is withdraw and advise her to get new counsel because they've created a conflict of interest between me and my client. I don't know what state you're in but I would definitely call your state bar ethics hotline before withdrawing. As a general rule a grievance itself is not grounds for a COI but rather the underlying conduct. I'd be surprised if your state's ethics rules allowed an OP to file a meritless grievance against the opposing counsel and then use that grievance to blackmail the attorney into withdrawing. What would prevent the OP (or any party in any litigation) from doing this repeatedly? In any event, this may be the type of conflict that the client could waive. If it were me unless the ethics required withdrawing I'd loving go to war with the other side.

Yeah, if anything I'd file the complaint at the very least as a CYA measure in case their grievance complaint goes forward. Obviously if you don't have anything in writing it's gonna be a hard sell, but being first on the record is usually a good thing.

I filed a withdrawal, got my client new counsel, told them I'd testify as to OP's behavior and supplemented my response to the grievance with all that poo poo. I don't think I can be good counsel if I'm personally invested in the case. I'm gonna gently caress both of them over to the best of my ability, though.

GrandmaParty posted:Opposing party in litigation files a grievance against me. On the transactional side, it is not uncommon for certain sponsor's counsel firms to say that they will not recommend us to be designated as lender's counsel on future LBOs unless we ease off on the one we're working on now (while telling their client that we are being uncommercial, obstructive, etc.).

Some jurisdictions (e.g., DC) have express statutory provisions against that kind of behavior, others have interpreted their RPC to ban it, but that kind of bullshit can easily net you anything from censure to disbarment.

Yeah, I think that's the only option they left you in that situation. Even if the opposing party's ethical complaint against you was legitimate, using that complaint as a negotiation tactic was not. . . and you have an ethical duty to report that to the bar organization.
