A lawyer's day is filled with potential pitfalls—missed statute of limitation periods, drafting errors, conflicts of interest—but knowing how to appropriately respond to these situations is crucial. Fortunately, learning from other lawyers' mistakes can provide memorable lessons. Join George Jonson, J.D., and Erin McCartney, J.D., as they examine actual cases and consider whether the lawyer's conduct violated the ethics rules. The discussion will include an analysis of cases and the applicable "Model Rules of Professional Conduct," as well as an evaluation of the lessons that can be learned from each case.
