Lawyers will often recommend that their clients memorialize things in writing when making important personal or business decisions. But lawyers do not always take their own advice when it comes to documenting their recommendations and a client’s decision-making.

There are myriad decisions that are made during a typical representation. What form of relief should the client seek? What motions should be filed and when? What terms should be included in an agreement? Which witnesses should be deposed and which should be saved for trial? Should the action settle? If so, what’s the settlement value? All these decisions are fairly common but might involve a mix of analysis and recommendation, as well as client approval.
