Description:
It is not always easy determining our ethical and professional
responsibility obligations. Join us to review how recent ethics
opinions, judicial decisions and commentary have addressed those
obligations on some thorny issues relevant to lawyers in 2019. Topics
will include: dealing with client conflicts and waivers, withdrawal from
difficult representations, handling confidential client information,
attorney plagiarism, subpoenaing an existing client on behalf of another
client, litigation funding, obligations when representing a client in a
suspicious transaction, and many more. The panel will welcome comments
and questions from the audience.
