Lawyers and Mistakes

Carolyn Elefant (MyShingle) has an worthwhile article at Law.com titled "When Lawyers Make Mistakes."

Most lawyers have heard similar admonitions and stories before, but for some reason, many fail to address mistakes properly and wisely. This kind of reminder never hurts.

Carolyn's article links to the weblog of The Uncivil Litigator, whose recent experiences, and his admirable handling of a mistake, demonstrate the value of acknowledging one's mistakes and addressing them directly.
