disclosure rule in Illinois

1997One court, faced with a similar question involving the disclosure of a fee-sharing agreement to a client, found that the client presumably knew of the arrangement, if not the details, stating, 'This method of dealing admittedly may not strictly comport with the guidelines of section DR 2-107 of the Code of Professional Responsibility, but it certainly does not fall far from this section's ethical parameters.' Carter v. Katz, Shandell, Katz and Erasmous (1983), 465 N.Y.S.2d 991, 997 , 120 Misc. 2d 1009, 1015 (construing ABA version of the disciplinary rule)." Phillips , 169 Ill.
