Abstract
The spread of the coronavirus has massively disrupted the way lawyers fulfill their obligations to their clients. From work-from-home set-up to virtual proceedings, lawyers had to adjust to the new means of working.
However, pandemic or not, one thing does not change – lawyers’ ethical duties. Regardless of whether who is ill or which courthouse is closed, lawyers’ ethical obligation to put their client’s interest first remains. A plethora of issues creates an ethical minefield for lawyers who, therefore, need to put a straightforward plan in place to ensure that they and their clients are protected.
In this webcast, lawyers and other legal industry professionals will learn how to meet their ethical duties during a pandemic and beyond. The speakers will cover the applicable rules of conduct, state regulations, and effective compliance strategies.
Key topics include:
• Ethical Dilemmas Arising from COVID-19
• Lessons Learned
• Considerations to Take in Various Areas of Ethics:
o Communication
o Diligence
o Competence
o Confidentiality
o Supervision
o Payment (Accepting Advances and Payments via Online Apps)
• Risk Mitigation Strategies
• Meeting Your Ethical Obligations – Best Practices During a Pandemic/Crisis
