Portrait of a Twenty-First Century Lawyer
Version 1.0

In my first year at Harvard Law School, I took a much sought-after legal ethics course taught by Professor Lani Guinier.

Toward the end of the semester-long class, Professor Guinier gave us an assignment to put together a collection of images - a collage - representing the lawyers we were then seeking to become. Our assignment was to build upon all of the thought-provoking, insightful conversations and debates that we enjoyed collectively as a class - conversations and debates about our obligations to represent and advocate, to disagree with our clients as needed, to help those without access to legal representation and those whose civil and economic rights remain in jeopardy, to maintain abreast of changes in the law across jurisdictions, to be prepared to face conflicts of interests among clients, to protect communications and other client materials in all media that are subject to attorney-client privilege and to figure out how to best provide legal services to clients, among many other obligations.

As starting point for my collage, I went back to my career at CMS Energy and its principal subsidiary, Consumers Energy, and I thought about the attributes of the extremely talented lawyers with whom I worked and who inspired me, in part, to become a lawyer. Those lawyers included S. Kinnie Smith, John Palincsar, Teresa Sebastian, Amy Bateson, Tony Morrow, Sharon McIlnay, Mike Sheridan and Jay Silverman. These role models displayed legal problem-solving skills, business acumen, teaming skills and emotional intelligence, compassion and equanimity, all of which attributes allowed them to be an integral part of progressing the strategic and operational plans of CMS Energy. Each always started every deal, proceeding or project with: How can I help? How can we progress this matter together?

With an idea in my mind of the lawyer I wanted to be, I turned to creating my collage. My collage had all of the attributes that I associated with a highly-skilled, ethical and compassionate lawyer who works diligently to anticipate and fulfill her clients’ needs and to help those who cannot afford her services. The collage I created has ever since continued to be a reminder of the lawyer that I have strived, and continue to strive, to be every day. In giving us that very original, creative and collaborative assignment, Professor Guinier wanted us to recognize that it is important to keep in mind the professional each of us is committing to be, notwithstanding the challenges we may face.

The Portrait

Now that the landscape for studying and practicing the law and for delivering legal work product and services has changed, I decided to begin to create an image of the 21st century lawyer. I started by looking at the New York Rules of Professional Conduct (for attorneys), and I was struck by how powerful the Preamble is.

A lawyer … is a representative of clients and an officer of the legal system with special responsibility for the quality of justice. As a representative of clients, a lawyer assumes many roles, including advisor, advocate, negotiator, and evaluator. As an officer of the legal system, each lawyer has a duty to uphold the legal process; to demonstrate respect for the legal system; to seek improvement of the law; and to promote access to the legal system and the administration of justice. In addition, a lawyer should further the public’s understanding of and confidence in the rule of law and the justice system because, in a constitutional democracy, legal institutions depend on popular participation and support to maintain their authority. (Emphasis added.)

I also thought back to our discussions in Professor Guinier’s class, and I asked myself: In the twenty-first century and beyond, how does - how will - a lawyer best represent her or his clients?

Then, a vision of a 21st century lawyer came into view:
The legal profession meets the matrix.
