Question

Attorney Sarah Robinson represents a woman named Taylor Jackson as a plaintiff in a car accident case. The defense has made an offer to settle the case, but Sarah leaves it on her desk without forwarding a copy to Taylor. Taylor calls six times to check on the status of the case, but all of the calls go unanswered. The settlement offer expires before Taylor ever sees it.

Answer 1

Her actions were illegal

Step-by-step explanation:

We could make the conclusion that the attorney's actions were illegal. Consider, under the requirements of the law, an attorney acts as a representative to clients by giving advice to the clients, etc.

But they do not have the responsibility of making decisions for their clients except they receive the consent of their clients.
