SUMMARY:Soft law and hard law: ethical parameters in lawyer as advisor 
DESCRIPTION:Is today's soft law tomorrow's hard law? Under that adage\, l
 awyers have been expected to be a wise counsellor to their clients inste
 ad of a mere legal representative. Taking into account matters such as d
 iversity and inclusion\, climate change\, human rights or (other) CSR gu
 idelines. Times\, however\, are changing\, as US pressure on law firms t
 o ditch diversity and inclusion policies shows. To what extent does it f
 all within the role of lawyers to go beyond hard law? To ask questions t
 hat the client would rather not answer? To give advice that clients are 
 not willing to hear it\, let alone pay for?
