Abstract

Recent research on lawyer‐client relations has called into question the traditional image of the lawyer as the autonomous professional. This research note reviews this research and proposes a three‐dimensional framework for interpreting lawyer‐client relationships. The utility of the framework is illustrated using data collected through interviews with corporate lawyers and their clients in Toronto.
