This program will put "cutting edge" topics on hold and instead re-center lawyers' attention to the five core components of a "recipe" for ethical lawyering. Lawyers who attend this course will be reminded that the ethics rules can be complex and hard to memorize, but that there exist core concepts which, if kept at the front of mind, can keep lawyers on the straight and narrow path. While the program is built around the five alliterative core concepts – competence, confidentiality, communication, candor, and (avoiding) conflicts -- specific aspects of all of the following Model Rules will be addressed: 1.1, 1.2, 1.4, 1.6. 1.7-1.10, 1.15. 1.18, 3.3, 4.1, 7.1, and 8.4.
