What is a conflict interest?

conflict of interest is a situation in which someone in a position of trust, such as a lawyer, insurance adjuster, a politician, executive or director of a corporation or a medical research scientist or physician, has competing professional or personal interests. Such competing interests can make it difficult to fulfill his or her duties impartially. A conflict of interest exists even if no unethical or improper act results from it. A conflict of interest can create an appearance of impropriety that can undermine confidence in the person, profession, or court system. A conflict can be mitigated by third party verification or third party evaluation noted below-but it still exists. Note: This summary incorrectly implies that conflicts of interest only apply to professionals. A conflict of interest arises when anyone has two duties which conflict - for example an employee's duty to well and faithfully perform their work as purchasing manager, and that same employee's familial duty to their sibling who happens to be tendering for the sale of widgets to the employee's employer. In that case the employee has a conflict of interest, despite the fact that they are not a lawyer, doctor, politician etc

What is the appearance of a conflict of interest?

Conflict of interest is a philosophic idea in which you are partial or biased because of personal gain or proclivity for yourself or another. It can't be illegal because you're allowed to look out for yourself and others at will. Conflict of interest only comes up in the legal arena when your interest in yourself may conflict with you giving accurate or impartial answers to questions during your testimony.Where elected or appointed officials are concerned, states have laws governing what officials and candidates can and cannot do in their interactions with private individuals and corporations. Politicians who provide preferential treatment can face adverse public opinion, and even criminal charges including bribery or malfeasance.


Your ex wife and your current wife have the same lawyer is this a conflict of interest?

I'd say it would be iffy. Part of it will depend on the law firm. If we are talking the exact same attorney, yes it would be a conflict. If you are talking the same firm, but different people, there could be a 'Chinese Wall' set up to avoid any conflict. Even so, if there is ongoing litigation between you and your ex-wife, it could definitely be a conflict. Regardless, I'd ask my wife to change lawyers.
