| Tiivistelmä: | The processes of economic integration induced by globalization have created a certain type of legal practice that challenges the core values of legal ethics. In order to sustain competition for lucrative clients, law firms seeking to represent the interest of internationally active corporate clients must embrace and systematically apply concepts of strategic management and planning and install corporate business structures. These measures bear a high conflict potential. This paper argues that legal ethics is adapting to the pressure exerted by "managerial" approaches to legal practice without altering core values that underlie legal ethics. |
