George Lawler and John Claydon were lawyers who maintained separate law practices in the same office space. They shared the expenses of that space but never shared clients, did not commingle their funds, and did not share profits or losses from their practices. A sign identified the office as "Claydon and Lawler," and the same joint listing of names appeared on sta-tionery they both used and in their telephone listing. Claydon introduced Lawler to his clients as his part-ner. In phone conversations, Lawler identified himself as Claydon's partner. Is there a risk that Lawler will be liable on contracts and torts made by Claydon?

    Yes

    Explanation:

    There is no tangible connection, between the two lawyers, I mean, there is no tangle connection like, maybe they attended law school together or maybe they were childhood friends, what is linking both of the. Is the office. the main reason y they is risk of Lawler will be liable for contracts and torts made by claydon is that they don't share clients, a time will come when clients will favour one of the other based on performance and one will get jealous and envious of the other before you know it, one will try to win a client over from another and causes conflict, so yes there is a big risk between them in profession.
