We recognize our professional duty to keep the client adequately
informed concerning the legal matter that we have been retained to
address. We also recognize the practical impossibility to respond to
each inquiry by telephone or correspondence whether by client or
family representative. All inquiries will be received and considered
by the attorney, who will decide what response is appropriate. As
attorney and client, we must both endeavor to accommodate the
interests and needs of the other, and must exercise patience.
Because of the specialized nature of this law practice, many K & W
clients are imprisoned in state and federal penal institutions. This
presents obvious interference with the communications with those
clients, and necessitates the need, in most cases, to designate 1
(one) contact person who is not incarcerated with whom K & W will
maintain communications. Since attorney-client communications are
privileged and confidential, to accommodate those interests we will
prepare a special power of attorney for the client which empowers
the personal representative to receive and forward confidential
matters from the client and the attorney. As a client you have the
right to schedule an office appointment or a scheduled telephone
conference with an attorney, subject to reasonable limitations. |
