1/2 - If we have Rule 2.1 - "a lawyer shall exercise independent professional judgment and render candid advice...a lawyer may refer not only to law but to other considerations such as moral, economic, social and political factors, that may be relevant to the client&
#39;s situation."

I&
#39;m not being flippant, I genuinely would like to understand counter-arguments here. I think dialogue is critical to ensuring healthy change. Help me, what&
#39;s going on here?
