When a client’s case involves abuse, professional responsibility takes on new meaning. While national and state ethics rules give some guidance, ethical and professional obligations required in abuse cases involve unique best practices and resources. It is thus imperative to be prepared with these specific tools when representing a survivor of abuse, and to avoid ethical failures that could cause further harm. This presentation will discuss the best practices in pre-litigation, filing, and settlement for elder abuse and sexual assault/harassment cases and explore legal and ethical obligations as an advocate with regard to victim privacy, confidentiality, privilege, and the scope of legal services

Please join us for this webinar on Thursday, January 26, from 12:00 p.m.-1:00 p.m. PT. 1 hour of Legal Ethics MCLE credit is available through this training.
