Louisiana Legal Ethics: Standards & Commentary (2018), is a newly-updated compendium of Louisiana legal ethics standards. It includes the full text of the Louisiana Rules of Professional Conduct, annotations addressing the history and adoption of each rule, ABA comments, and important Louisiana case law through December 2017. Finally, it includes a year-in-review summary that looks back at important developments in Louisiana legal ethics during 2017, and answers to frequently asked legal ethics questions. Dane S. Ciolino edits and annotates this book. He serves as the Alvin R.
