Highlight
A lawyer's violation of the rules of professional conduct must be established by clear and convincing evidence.
Payment of fees for an initial consultation with a lawyer does not, by itself, establish a lawyer-client relationship.
A lawyer is not prohibited from representing a client with interests adverse to those of a potential client in the same or a substantially-related matter unless the lawyer has received significantly harmful information from the potential client.
