Given Facts: This is a valid contract. (No need to research and discuss). Carefully read the scope of the assignment and tailor your research and analysis to the issues raised by the facts. The concerns that are raised deal with the California State Bar rules of Professional conduct, The Business and Professions Code and any other California regulation. You are reminded that you will only cite to California rules, regulations, cases or other California Authority. The ABA does not regulate the legal profession in California, NALA does not regulate the legal profession in California therefor citations to those types of authorities would not be persuasive or conclusive to any analysis of the legal issues.

We have a contract with Zeneth Insurance Company to perform legal services for their insured members. The bills will be paid by Zeneth. All expenses and services must be approved by the adjuster prior to being performed and billed to Zeneth. (Note: THis is a common contractual relationship between an insurance defense firm and insurance company. Focus on issues dealing with the “client.”
Our firm has been hired to represent the Zeneth’s insured members in any matter covered by the insurance policy. What possible issues might this create when you have been hired to represent “all insured members on any matter covered by the insurance policy.”
The contract sets an hourly rate of $300.00/hr. for an attorney, $150.00/hr. for paralegal. What regulations must be considered?  (Take your time on this issue, I can’t be less vague, or I will give the answer. Review all of the fees and billing issues covered in Para 101 and Para 12, as well as basic principles covered in Para 100).
 What types of records must the firm maintain?
