I need help deciding which is the best answer. In the question below I believe (A)would be an acceptable answer. am not as far as B goes I am not sure if lowering the clients fees is the issue at hand in the question. In regarding the option C, I am not sure if Joe can actually sign for Dan. I think it may be fraud, because the question is vague about the requirements of the signatures I believe D could be true because Dan ultimately liable for his employees, and accuracy of work.

This is the scenario: (keep in mind the ABA's Model Rules)

Joe has recently been admitted to the bar. Attorney Dan hires Joe as an Associate to supervise the work of Sally, the paralegal who has handled title searches in Dan's office for the last 10 years. Joe is to review Sally's searches for accuracy, to handle any legal questions that might arise, and to sign off in Dan's name once the title searches are accurate.

Which of the following is true:

1. (A) It is proper for Joe to assume these responsibilities because he is an attorney, and Sally is highly experienced in title searches.

2. (B) It is improper for Attorney Dan to assign this role to Joe unless it will significantly lower his client's fees for title certification.

3. (C) It is improper for Joe to assume these responsibilities as he may not sign documents using Dan's name.

4. (D)It is proper for Joe to assume these responsibilities because Attorney Dan is ultimately liable for the accuracy of the title searches
