The Ethics of Contract Negotiation

Contract negotiation is a delicate business, usually done in private between artist and label representatives. How do attorneys handle the ethics of representing artists in some cases, and record labels in others? What happens to the negotiations process when it's done in the open, either through public relations fights, lawsuits, or as is done in the EU/UK through a standard contract negotiations process?
