Presented by: Stuart Teicher, Esq., The CLE Performer
Did the drafters of our ethics code believe that lawyers are superheroes? It seems so. In this unique program, Stuart Teicher, Esq. (the “CLE Performer”) weaves together talk of superpowers, superheroes, and other fun stuff to explain important ethics rules and explore both the breadth and limitations on a lawyer’s power. Topics Include:
- The allocation of decision-making authority between lawyer and client (Rule 1.2)
- The rule about withdrawing from representation (Rule 1.16)
- Our duties as an advisor (Rule 2.1) and misrepresentation (Rule 4.1)
- The key things to watch out for in reporting misconduct (Rule 8.3)
