About the program

Back by popular demand – a hilarious alternative to traditional CLE programs

What you’ll learn:

  • Why ethics matter
  • How to see the humor in life and law
  • Common-sense solutions to ethical dilemmas

Who should attend:

Any lawyer who wants to have his ethics update and enjoy it, too!

Admit it, sitting through a CLE program can be like attending traffic school.  Actually, you might think it’s worse … because at least with traffic school, you’ve done something wrong to deserve that “punishment.”

Sean Carter is going to turn your frown upside down by giving you his alternative to traditional CLE programs – Comedic Legal Education.

In this hilarious seminar Sean unleashes a two-pronged approach to keeping legal ethics from becoming an oxymoron like jumbo shrimp, military intelligence, or happily married ….

Thou Shall Not Lie, Cheat, and Steal
Join Sean as he delivers an off-beat “sermon” with his own ten commandments covering the most common pitfalls facing attorneys as they strive to meet their ethical and professional obligations to clients, court officials and colleagues. Drawing on his background as a corporate lawyer and former stand-up comedian, America’s Funniest Lawyer will not only deliver a healthy dose of “lawghter” but also common-sense solutions to the most persistent ethical and professional dilemmas.

By the end of this program, Sean will not only have you in stitches, he’ll leave you with a better understanding of how to handle yourself in this crazy world.
