It has come to my attention that on a case I handled for a client several years ago, I neglected to provide certain information. I want to correct this. My insurance carrier has advised me to never admit to the client that I made a mistake and to leave it alone. Can I do so?
The answer is not only can you do so, but the answer is you must do so. With all due regard to whatever insurance company you might utilize, the Rules of Ethics set forth in the Rules of Professional Conduct in Pennsylvania guide what an attorney must and must not do.
