When drafting opinion letters, what is “customary practice” is a common question. This question leads to customary challenges for attorneys and their firms. How should a law firm organize its process for rendering opinions? What resources are available for the opinion giver and the opinion recipient? Does the Golden Rule work in opinion practice? This presentation in The 60-Minute Lawyer series discusses third-party legal opinions. We examine how to make the opinion process less contentious and more constructive. Please join us and discuss these important issues!
