Everyday, lawyers have to navigate conflicts of interest to determine when they can take on a new representation or when they must withdraw from an existing one. This CLE will cover the more complicated conflict of interest scenarios—the so-called “hot potato” doctrine and “thrust-upon” conflicts. 

The CLE will describe the critical provisions of Rule 1.7 (current client conflicts) and Rule 1.9 (former client conflicts) as well as common law created doctrines that govern disqualification proceedings. It will conclude by providing practical guidance on how to avoid conflicts and how best to navigate them should they nonetheless arise.
