Prepare a report on the movie "A Civil Action", providing a
brief summary of the plot and specifically addressing the following
areas:
(1) Identify any ethical issues faced by the attorney or
firm. Were those issues addressed correctly, under the
ethical rules of your state?
(2) Consider the popular perception of lawyers and law
firms. Is the movie's portrayal consistent with what people
think? Is the portrayal harmful or good for the image of the
legal profession? Do you think the movie reflects reality in the
practice of law?
(3) Discuss the roles played by non-lawyers in the
practice portrayed in the movie.
(4) Does the movie's portrayal of office politics give you
an insight into the motivations behind people's actions? For
example: Why might partners be reluctant to let others
lawyers in their own firm meet their clients?
(5) Is there any mention of technology? If the movie is
recent, did you note any interesting applications of technology? If
the movie is older, did you note any situations in which today's
technology might have changed the plot?
