Total for Assignment 01: [30]
a)
The way we conduct the interview will depend on the purpose of the interview. An
interview with a client seeking advice will be conducted according to certain accepted
protocols and techniques. There are some basic techniques that will be applied in any
interview conducted by a lawyer. Implicit in these techniques are well-thought-out
principles which determine the structure of the interview and the style and content of the
questions. Our hypothetical client is a new client; we have not done any work for her
before.1
So, we need to rely on a general scheme for interviews that will serve us well, not only
for this client, but for other clients as well. Our objectives are to elicit the relevant facts;
clarify the client's objectives; explain the law and procedure to the client; advise the client
on the available options; counsel the client; and take instructions on the future conduct of
the matter.2
