Professor Lois R. Lupica Gives Presentation on Maine Professional Responsibility Rules

Maine Bar Foundation Professor Lois R. Lupica recently gave a Continuing Legal Education Presentation, together with Attorney Paul Chaiken and other members of the Task Force on Ethics 2000 concerning the work of the Task Force and changes in the Maine Rules of Professional Conduct. Professor Lois R. Lupica has been the Reporter on the revision of the Maine Rules of Professional Conduct (the Maine Bar Rules) for the last four years. The Maine Supreme Judicial Court has enacted the revision, which will be effective on August 1, 2009. The revision more closely aligns the Maine Bar Rules with the format and substance of the Model Rules of Professional Conduct.
