Beyond Black Letter Law: Tennessee Ethics

Description:

Every Tennessee attorney is obligated to know the rules and to act in accordance with their ethical duties. Nevertheless, the increasing complexity associated with the modern day practice of law, as well as increasing specialization, has led to a world in which compliance with our ethical obligations is not always so simple as just sitting down and reading what the rules say. This course is designed to look at some specific facts and circumstances which, depending on the nature of your practice, may or may not be common to your daily experiences. Nevertheless, the course is designed to enhance awareness and understanding of the Rules of Professional Conduct.

Scenarios include: reporting ethical violations, working with opposing counsel, client files, and several others.Interactive text programs include questions, response actions, tab activities, and other engaging features.
