I, along with Tara McGuire, an associate here at Stoll Keenon Ogden, have recently published in the Texas Journal of Business Lawan article titled Conflicting Views as to the Unfinished Business Doctrine. In this article we consider a pair of recent decisions from New York and Colorado that come to opposite conclusions as to the application of the Unfinished Business Doctrine. We address as well the validity of the Doctrine as a means of protecting partnership creditors, including retired partners, and explain why the Doctrine does not raise ethical issues as to the capacity of clients to select the attorney(s) of their choice.
