Credits: 2.0 ethics & professionalism credit hours
Description: Join us for this highly regarded and consistently popular class designed specifically for practicing attorneys navigating legal practice across the District of Columbia, Maryland, and Virginia. The class provides a comparative overview of the rules of professional conduct in each jurisdiction, highlighting key differences in core areas such as fees, confidentiality, conflicts of interest, litigation conduct, handling of client funds, third-party communications, advertising, and client solicitation.
Our esteemed panel goes beyond the rules themselves and explores the often complex issue of conflict of laws – helping you understand which jurisdiction’s rules may apply in multi-jurisdictional scenarios. You’ll gain insight into how to proactively manage compliance, even when the applicable rules vary from one jurisdiction to another.
Through a mix of practical examples and thoughtful hypotheticals, the panel brings ethical challenges to life, illustrating how the rules operate in real-world settings. Whether your practice crosses borders daily or occasionally, this class offers essential guidance and clarity. If you practice in D.C., Maryland, or Virginia, this is one session you simply can’t afford to miss.
