[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That's not true. Under the DC and VA bar rules, there is no ethical requirement regarding giving notice. There's a requirement about ensuring client transitions are taken care of and whether a client is left hanging in the breeze without counsel but in terms of ethical obligations...unless there's a direct conflict (and going in house rarely poses one), you are fine. Particularly since you are on leave. I am the woman who left to go in house during leave. I looked into this extensively. Finish up your leave.e Go back and give notice during which time make sure your clients are transitioned, etc. You can't just quit and never come back but there is no need to tell them sooner.[/quote] Your narrow definition of ethics isn't shared by most.[/quote]
