Reviews of (and Comments about) Lawyer Disqualification:
"Flamm provides his audience of legal scholars, counselors, and jurists with a concise and solid overview of the law of attorney and law firm disqualification. Lawyer Disqualification is a wise purchase and sound investment for academic, firm, judicial and even county law libraries."
– Law Library Journal 96:1 (Winter, 2004)
"Litigating lawyers never know when a situation possibly calling for disqualification of counsel will arise. Thus, Lawyer Disqualification: Conflicts of Interest and Other Bases, by Richard E. Flamm, belongs on the bookshelf of lawyers frequently involved in litigation, especially high-stakes complex litigation. Flamm's book will provide a solid baseline for analysis of problems as they arise, together with a starting place for case law research in most American jurisdictions."
- Hodes, Georgetown Journal of Legal Ethics, Vol.17:339, 346 (Winter, 2004)
Lawyer Disqualification: Conflicts of Interest and Other Bases is the long-awaited second nationwide treatise by one of America's leading experts on that subject. In Lawyer Disqualification the author considers in painstaking detail all of the grounds for seeking to disqualify a lawyer or firm - including conflicts of interest. Mr. Flamm also discusses the procedure for filing and deciding disqualification motions, the available defenses to disqualification, vicarious disqualification, appellate review of adverse disqualification orders, and many other relevant topics.
"I have most of my ethics books across my office on my bookcase, except for my copy of the Tennessee ethics rules and your book, both of which sit within arm's reach. I keep meaning to put yours over on the shelf, but I just keep reaching for it too often . . ."

In researching Lawyer Disqualification, Professor Flamm reviewed more than 2,500 disqualification decisions from every American jurisdiction. His insightful analysis is useful to both the lawyers who are involved in disqualification proceedings, and the judges who are called upon to decide them. Lawyer Disqualification is the one reference both judges and lawyers can turn to when in need of the authority to support their position.
"This hard-bound book ... overlaps substantially with this [online ethics] site, but is more comprehensive, both as to subjects, depth of analysis, and the number of older cases cited."
