Manage episode 217272101 series 1395235
Bill Wagner hasn’t tried a case since 2008. But he’s very engaged in – and concerned about – the practice of trial law. At age 84, he still goes into the office on most days and is actively involved in helping fellow lawyers recover from mistakes in their careers. If you’re a lawyer and not particularly happy about being one, Bill says you’re not alone.
He’s been involved in petitions before the Florida Supreme Court to amend the rules on lawyer ethics. He advocates for a complete review of those rules, arguing that the Court needs to examine the conflict between a lawyer’s economic interest and those of the client – and together, weighed again the interests of the public at large.
