Soliciting clients can be an ethical minefield. In fact, it is so tough to navigate that the American Bar Association has issued a new opinion on the subject. Join the CLE Performer Stuart Teicher on June 23 at 10:15 a.m. CDT for one hour as he explains the rules on solicitation and talks about the weird “hybrid” situation that arises when a lawyer talks to a potential client. Specific rules to be covered are Rule 1.18, Prospective Client Relationships; Rule 7.2, Communicating About Lawyer Services; and Rule 7.3, Soliciting Clients. One hour of dual credit will be offered. The session follows Teicher’s presentation on legal writing at 9 a.m. the same day.
