Lawyers Appreciate Fairness

This article was inspired by Vickie Pynchon of settle-it-now blog http://www.negotiationlawblog.com/ who tagged the workplaces that work blog on the topic of what lawyers appreciate.

It may come as a surprise to some people to learn that most lawyers strive for fairness in their dealings with others. This includes their own clients, other lawyers and even opposing clients. While it is clearly understood that the parties are in competition with each other - there is still an overriding sense of fairness that guides the actions of lawyers. As this blog is devoted to workplace fairness I thought it appropriate to mention that many lawyers strive for fairness in their own workplace through their dealings with other workplace participants.

I have chosen to tag three other canadian bloggers
