This half-day seminar will explore a number of the most frequently debated topics in the area of lawyer ethics in a fast-paced, information-packed format.

Improve your relationships

One of the leading sources of complaints in our profession is communications problems with clients.  It goes way beyond returning phone calls and keeping clients informed on court dates.  What do you say when you’ve made a mistake?  How do you handle a client who won’t stop calling about meaningless things?  When does the relationship begin and end?

By attending the Legal Ethics 2008 seminar, you’ll get a thorough grounding in the many facets of the attorney/client relationship, including:

• Your duties in the relationship
• Making it clear who is in charge
• Handling a client with diminished capacity
• Knowing the difference between confidentiality and privilege
• When and how can you fire a client?

Engage the panel

The seminar features interactive “stump the panel” segments, an opportunity for you to see how the speaker panel would react to common ethical dilemmas faced by all lawyers.  Panelists are presented with various fact scenarios from diverse areas of practice and explain how they would respond to the ethical dilemma.  This engaging and interactive format is sure to enrich your understanding of the shades and complexities of legal ethical considerations.
