| What the lawyer must review | You decide which document controls. Formal Opinion 512: check every mark before it is relied on. A conflict note is not a conclusion under the state's common-interest statute. If the property is in California, open the Civil Code section the clause touches before you advise on it. Model Rule 1.6: do not put the agreement into a public tool. |
