“b. If client informed consent is permissible a lawyer may represent a client notwithstanding a significant risk of material and adverse effect if each affected client or former client gives informed consent, confirmed in writing, to the representation after: 1. consultation with the lawyer, pursuant to Rule 1.0(c) ; 2. having received in writing reasonable and adequate information about the material risks of and reasonable available alternatives to the representation, and 3. having been given the opportunity to consult with independent counsel. c. Client informed consent is not permissible if the representation: 1. is prohibited by law or these Rules; 2. includes the assertion of a claim by one client against another client represented by the lawyer in the same or substantially related proceeding; or 3. involves circumstances rendering it reasonably unlikely that the lawyer will be able to provide adequate representation to one or more of the affected clients. The maximum penalty for a violation of this Rule is disbarment.”
