Goodell DeVries lawyers Craig Brodsky and George Mahaffey have been appointed co-chairs of the Professional Ethics Committee of the Bar Association of Baltimore City (BABC).
Craig and George will lead the Committee's educational programming, which will address various ethics-related topics and provide guidance on the interpretation and application of Maryland's Rules of Professional Conduct. They will also assist with the BABC's ethics hotline, which is staffed by volunteers who provide lawyers with informal answers to questions related to the Rules of Professional Conduct.
Experienced ethics lawyers, Craig and George represent attorneys in disciplinary cases and legal malpractice cases. They provide counsel from the early stages of the investigation by Bar Counsel all the way through the final Court of Appeals argument.
They have also written and presented extensively on ethics-related topics – from the intersection of legal ethics and AI to the benefits of professional liability insurance and the ethics of lawyers critiquing their clients. View their portfolio of legal ethics topics here. Craig is also the author of The Daily Record’s Legal Ethics column, which is available here.
Goodell DeVries defends various professionals in Maryland, the District of Columbia, and Virginia, including lawyers and law firms. Many of these cases are ethics matters involving Bar Counsel. If you are a Maryland lawyer facing discipline, please contact us at EthicsHelp@gdldlaw.com.
