Summer 2026 Online Prоfessiоnаl Respоnsibility LA613 Midterm Professor Kelly Chаng Rickert Attorney Adаm Alton represents Callie Reynolds, the owner of a construction company involved in a dispute with a former business partner. During a confidential meeting, Callie tells Adam: She plans to submit altered invoices to a government agency to obtain payment for work that was never completed, and She intends to “make sure” a former project manager “regrets cooperating” with investigators. Adam tells Callie that he cannot assist her with unlawful conduct. Callie responds that she is “just venting” and does not want anyone else to know about her plans. Callie has also failed to pay Adam approximately $18,000 in legal fees from prior work. Adam informs Callie that he may need to stop representing her unless the balance is paid. The next day, Callie delivers Adam a $30,000 check labeled “advance payment for future legal services.” Adam deposits the entire amount into his law firm’s general operating account because he believes he is entitled to recover the unpaid fees first. Over the next several weeks, Callie becomes increasingly difficult to represent. She demands that Adam file a lawsuit against her former partner based on allegations Adam believes have no factual or legal support. Callie tells Adam: “I do not care if we cannot prove it. Filing the lawsuit will pressure him into settling.” Adam wants to end the representation. What ethical obligations, if any, does Attorney Adam Alton have?
