Lawyers and "Undue Influence"

Attorney Misconduct, Attorney Ethics

Advising clients to accept settlements or plea agreements are frequent parts of legal practice.  However, some clients regret their decision, blame their attorneys, then claim they were misled.  Although some situations may be a variant of "buyer's remorse," in others attorneys may have engaged in excessive or inappropriate manipulation.  A knowledgable expert in undue influence and manipulation tactics can often clarify the matter.
