Benefits

The responsibilities and professional obligations of paralegals are impacted by various ethical considerations and rules. Since paralegals face the same ethical issues that attorneys encounter, paralegals should have an understanding of the appropriate, professional and ethical requirements of attorneys. The more paralegals know about the ethical responsibilities of attorneys, the more problems they will avoid and can assist the attorney in avoiding. Additionally, paralegal organizations have adopted their own rules and guidelines regarding the professional and ethical conduct of paralegals. This live audio conference will give you an overview of the common ethical issues and the rules of ethics that apply to attorneys and to paralegals as well.
