Delegating Legal Work: Proceed with Caution

 

Understand how to ethically and effectively delegate work to nonlawyers, and learn what work should and should not be delegated.

This topic is intended to provide you with a better understanding of how to effectively delegate legal work to nonattorneys. Although most attorneys utilize nonattorney staff to perform aspects of legal work, delegation can be a minefield of potential malpractice, or even lead to the unauthorized practice of law. From this information, you should be able to identify tasks that are appropriate for delegation and understand those tasks that cannot be delegated to nonlawyers. The topic will cover ethical rules that govern delegation and supervision of work as well as discuss the potential pitfalls of delegation and provide strategies for effective delegation.
