Attorney maintains a client trust account for the purpose of holding client funds and a separate firm account for his law practice operational funds. Attorney runs a high-volume, minimally profitable solo law firm, so his client trust account is often several times larger than his operational account. It is also a highly-sophisticated account with a single master account and separate sub-account for each client, and sub-sub-account for each client matter. The bank charges a monthly maintenance fee of $50 per month. Each month, Attorney transfers $50 from his operating account to cover the maintenance fees. After a while, Attorney begins to find this inconvenient, and he transfers $10,000 from his operating account to the trust account to cover the fees for the next several years.

Attorney is a general practitioner in private practice. She is also fundamentally opposed to the legalization of gambling. She believes that gambling is immoral, attracts crime, and is corrosive to communities. When she is approached by a pro-gambling legalization lobbying group, On a Roll, about representing them, she tries to keep an open mind and conducts a full intake interview with the On a Roll representative. She obtains significant relevant information regarding On a Roll, its litigation opponents, and its legislative lobbying strategy. Ultimately, Attorney decides that she must decline the representation because her beliefs would materially limit her representation. Because this representation is so potentially profitable, Attorney is considering referring the representation of On a Roll to her law firm partner.
