  • This program provides an experience-based overview and perspective on spotting and dealing with ethics issues that arise over a wide range of practice areas.  Members of the Professional Discipline Committee will present short, entertaining but issue-filled vignettes reflecting real-world scenarios.  Many CLE programs offer detailed treatment of specific rules or are aimed at specialty practices.  This program is different; it covers practical issues that can arise in any practice.  A panel of experts representing many facets of the legal community and decades of experience will comment on and discuss and answer questions about the vignettes.  The goal is to present issues and incidents the audience will remember and practical information they can use in daily practice.

    Live Program & Webcast: $199.00 Member | $299.00 Nonmember
