Legal ethicists use the Warren Trust controversy as a case study when debating such issues as whom trust counsel represents, whether trust counsel ethically can be a lawyer for a “family” or a “situation,” and what constitutes adequate informed consent to a trust counsel’s representation of persons whose interests are in conflict. The Warren Trust controversy is the subject of §8.38 of Loring and Rounds: A Trustee’s Handbook (2022), which section is reproduced in the appendix below. The Handbook is available for purchase at https://law-store.wolterskluwer.com/s/product/loring-rounds-a-trustees-handbook-2022e-misb/01t4R00000OVWE4QAP.
