Most serious legal malpractice claims and problematic bar disciplinary actions are brought not for debatable violations of arcane, ambiguous, provisions of the Rules of Professional Conduct, but, in fact, for clear breaches of obvious, well-defined ethical obligations. (Don't take money from the client trust account. Keep clients reasonably informed about the developments in a case or a transaction-even when it's bad news. Don't sleep with the attractive domestic client you are representing in an ongoing divorce proceeding. Be candid with the court., etc..) It's not rocket science-in fact, anyone who has sat in on a basic Professional Responsibility class would know such conduct is ethically problematic. And yet it happens. A lot. Even to our own friends and colleagues at the bar.
This engaging, highly interactive CLE workshop provides a fresh and practical perspective on the fundamental question, "Why do 'good' lawyers 'go bad'?" Vignettes from an engaging original short film, written and co-produced by ReelTime CLE founders Michael Kahn and Chris Osborn, serve as the catalyst for a practical and informative consideration of the intersection of ethical decision-making and the manifold sources of stress encountered by lawyers in managing the day-to-day practice of law.
