\"magglass\"   Martin Schwimmer’s Between Lawyer’s<\/EM> post “How to Lawyer <\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n
When Everyone’s Watching<\/FONT><\/A>” has sparked a debate between <\/FONT>Tom Mighell<\/FONT><\/A> <\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n
and myself about how much a lawyer should say on a website about about the <\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n
inappropriate conduct of another lawyer.  What Tom calls simple professional <\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n
courtesy I suggest sounds like professional omerta (an enabling silence that <\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n
keeps our dirty laundry in-house).  <\/FONT><\/DIV>
