Description

“Reaching Out” is an educational seminar designed to shed light on ethical issues that many attorneys face daily.After viewing a series of video vignettes, a panel will discuss a series of questions that address the issues raised in each vignette.During the panel discussions, attendees will be encouraged to ask questions and share comments. Topics raised in “Reaching Out” include duties to prospective clients, conflict issues that can arise when an attorney desires to encourage clients to make charitable bequests to a nonprofit entity while simultaneously sitting on the board of that entity, the disastrous fallout that can occur by being too lax with malpractice insurance applications, cybercrime prevention, the use of email tracking tools, and much more.This program is one that should not be missed.
