ABA has recommended all law schools know their students better and ensure their smooth transition into professional life across different firms.
Professionals in law are expected to exemplify profound responsibility and care for their clients in particular and illustrate qualities in their day-to-day life.

revisions to 303 (b) (c) as of 2022 mandated by American Bar
Association
1. superior client focus and responsiveness to the client,

1
Client-centered relational skills, problem-
solving, and good judgement
A growing number of empirical studies asking clients and legal employers about the
competencies needed for successful legal practice support the conclusion that the six traditional
technical competencies that law schools emphasize and which are set forth in Table 2, are
necessary but not sufficient to meet client and legal employer needs in changing markets (see
Resources: Hamilton-Competencies).

Well-being practices
These well-being issues lead to law
students and lawyers who are

suffering because of substance-use and
mental-health disorders. Interpretation
They utilize established instruments on each factor. Life satisfaction includes a personal (subjective)
evaluation of objective circumstances such as one’s work, health, home, relationships, possessions,
income, and leisure opportunities. Positive and negative affects are purely subjective,
straightforward experiences of “feeling good” or “feeling bad.”

There are several research approaches, sailing under different terminologies, that give insight into
the challenge of helping each student to develop toward the later stages of an internalized
commitment to continuous professional development. Self-directed learning and self-regulated

student’s growth to internalize a commitment to continuous professional development. Self-
The Model Rules contemplate that a lawyer will possess
very broad discretion when exercising professional
judgment to fulfill responsibilities to clients, the legal
system, and the quality of justice, and the rules also
recognize that the lawyer has a personal interest in being

Deep Responsibility & Care Orientation
to others, especially clients
Deep responsibility to and care for the client are the principal foundations for client
trust in the individual lawyer and the profession itself (see Resources: Sullivan). Deep
responsibility and care essentially entail a fiduciary disposition or fiduciary mindset,
using “fiduciary” in the general meaning of founded on trustworthiness. Each law
student and new lawyer must learn to internalize a responsibility to put the client’s
interests before the lawyer’s self-interest.
