A. As Starglow is a smaller CPA firm, it may be required to withdraw representation to one of the parties in the divorce settlement case, in order to avoid a conflict of interest.
B. Starglow should determine if it can feasibly represent both clients and still maintain independence and objectivity, and if so, proceed with assisting and representing both clients.
C. Upon realizing that they are representing both parties, Starglow should immediately advise both parties in writing of their intention to withdraw from the engagement.
D. Starglow needs to simply advise both parties in writing of their representation of the other party, which will indemnify them against any future attempts at litigation by either party.
