Question by jennaferlynn85: What should you do if your supervising attorney tells you to do something unethical?
This is the question given to me...
Your supervising attorney asks you to release to the press a letter from a third party to the press. The attorney says, "I'll finally get even by truely embarassing that S.O.B." What should you do?
Please do not respond if you are not sure, or you are goign to say something stupid!

Given the facts, it's not clear it's unethical. What was the content of the letter? Was its release otherwise proper, even though there were other motives as well?
If you feel the action is unethical, you have to refuse. At bottom, your law license is more important than any job.
