There is widespread lack of knowledge and misunderstanding about how attorney discipline matters are handled in Vermont. During the CLE we will discuss the following:
- current enforcement priorities and objectives from the Office of Disciplinary Counsel
- every question you ever wondered about, but were afraid to ask about what to do when a complaint is filed against you
-some simple suggestions about how to avoid ethics complaints and how to efficiently deal with them if they do arise
-Your role as criminal defense attorneys within the self-regulating structure of the profession
We’ll also cover other current topics relevant to criminal defense practitioners, including the area of post-conviction relief claims vs. defense counsel/legal malpractice claims.
Enjoy a lively discussion over breakfast at the lovely Mad River Barn; then enjoy a great afternoon on the slopes!
