What is the name of your state? SC
I am a volunteer in an organization that represents clients. My responsibilities include going to court on behalf of those clients. Legal representation is provided for me on each case. Recently I broke the organizations policy stating that I would not transport clients in my private motor vehicle.
When my director found out that I had in fact transported a client, he removed me from that particular case but later asked if I would agree to sign a statement agreeing that I had broken the policy, agreeing to be removed from the case, but also releasing the attorneys as my representation on this case.
I have no problem admitting to what I did, but should I sign this----releasing the attorneys doesn't feel right? What is their purpose? Are they trying to cover themselves if something comes up in the future regarding the incident?
Thanks,
Lexi
