I must be too small town or something. While working with a client and our attorneys, I was reminded that I owe my client absolutely nothing. I disagree.
According to this lawyer, I owe my client nothing legally. But what about ethics. I work my tail off defending clients from overpaying their taxes. When an auditor disallows something, I step to the plate and give it my all, to get it back. Most of the time I win, sometimes not. But I never felt as much apathy as the attorney elicited toward a client. Clients hire me to do a job. It is unfair to collect a fee and fail to perform a service.
I would like some feedback. How much does a professional service provider owe a client?
