The New York County Lawyers' Association (NYCLA) this month has scheduled a CLE seminar titled Ethics for the Busy Lawyer: Avoiding Ethical Dilemmas in Your Law Practice.
The program will take place on Tuesday, April 18 from 6 to 9 p.m. at the NYCLA Home of Law, 14 Vesey Street, New York City.
Taking a 'how to' approach, panelists will show participants how to protect themselves with regard to client communications, conflicts of interest, and other practices that give rise to ethical concerns. A step-by-step explanation of the disciplinary process also will be given, along with an overview of the trends in areas giving rise to ethical concerns and the resulting disciplinary sanctions imposed on practitioners.
The program chair is Lewis Tesser, Segal, Tesser & Ryan LLP. Other speakers will be John R. Horan, Fox Horan & Camerini LLP; Michael J. Garibaldi, CPA, Israeloff, Trattner & Co, PC, and Vitaly Lipkanski, prosecutor, Departmental Disciplinary Committee, First New York Judicial Department.
