The Model Rules of Professional Conduct provides an up-to-date resource for information on legal ethics. Federal, state and local courts in all jurisdictions look to the Rules for guidance in solving lawyer malpractice cases, disciplinary actions, disqualification issues, sanctions questions and much more. In this volume, black-letter Rules of Professional Conduct are followed by numbered Comments that explain each Rule's purpose and provide suggestions for its practical application. The Rules will help you identify proper conduct in a variety of given situations, review those instances where discretionary action is possible, and define the nature of the relationship between you and your clients, colleagues and the courts.

Every lawyer in Minnesota who holds any money of clients or third persons in connection with a representation must deposit the money in one or more identifiable trust accounts, and must maintain certain records about those trust accounts, and be able to produce them at any time. Minnesota Rules of Professional Conduct Rule 1.15 ("MRPC") details the obligations. Rule 1.15 is supplemented every year by an "Appendix 1," written by the Lawyers Professional Responsibility Board ("LPRB"). Those two documents tell you what records you must keep, but mostly do not tell you how. Nor, our new lawyer members every year tell us, do the law schools provide any training on how to keep trust accounts. This guide is meant to show how you can meet your obligations using the "Trust Accounting Software" ("TAS") module in Tabs3. Other ways exist, and other software programs. The Minnesota State Bar Association ("MSBA") has authored guides for several. One reason for adding a guide for Tabs3 lies in the fact that Tabs3 as a whole offers more than just trust accounting. It includes practice and case management, too. More and more lawyers are using such integrated programs. But the Tabs3 help materials for its trust accounting modules tend to be focused at a very low level, and do not give a good overview beginning at the "big picture" level, but with step-by-step instructions. This guide intends to fill that gap.

For proven guidance and techniques for handling a commercial real estate deal, this practical guide will help you negotiate and close the deal. The authors cover each step of a real estate transaction in the order in which it generally arises, and offers pertinent advice, practice comments, and sample forms throughout. Because much of the real estate lawyer's practice revolves around transactional documents, the book's chapters emphasize the drafting, negotiation, and revision needed to get a deal closed. Written by a law professor and two real estate practitioners, this book offers a useful combination of text overview and practice pointers. It helps lawyers with less experience navigate through the maze of steps involved in a real estate transaction. At the same time, it serves as a valuable reference for more seasoned attorneys as well as those whose practice is concentrated in other areas of the law. Downloadable forms are available online.
