8 August 2018 , Posted in: JAG News

July 20 and August 8, 2018

In the Maine Lawyers Review November 24, 2017 edition, Nan Heald the executive Director of Pine Tree Legal Assistance, Inc., published an article describing unprofessional conduct by Maine attorneys directed, for the most part, toward PTLA attorneys. The article prompted frank discussions and a realization of the need for action upon the part of the bar. The MSBA undertook an ambitious study of the issue and published their results and commenced conversations in Portland and Bangor.
