New York City Bar’s Trump Warning Highlights False Claims Issue
Ethics & Professional Responsibility Litigation Partner Ronald C. Minkoff is quoted in the article, “New York City Bar’s Trump Warning Highlights False Claims Issue” published by Bloomberg Law. The article discusses the New York City Bar’s warning against lawyers making misleading statements related to the search of former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence and how professional associations and disciplinary bodies are cracking down on false claims by attorneys. Ron is quoted saying, “Our ethics rules have long condemned fraud, deceit and misrepresentation, and disciplinary prosecutors have been more than willing to enforce those rules in appropriate cases” and “Lawyers can’t make false statements to courts or bring claims they know have no basis in fact.”
Ron adds, “That misconduct gets much worse when it takes place on a national platform and the lawyers making the statements know their words might incite violence” and “I hope the NYCBA Statement inspires us lawyers to follow the better angels of our nature. But those angels appear to be hiding lately.”
