McGuireWoods LLP invites you and your colleagues to attend Tom Spahn’s annual ethics program. This two-hour interactive discussion uses hypotheticals to explore lawyers’ confidentiality and disclosure duties in the context of non-clients’ misconduct.

Topics

  • Determining which state’s ethics rules apply
  • Lawyers’ duty to disclose non-clients’ felonies or child abuse
  • Lawyers “reporting up” corporate employee misconduct
  • Lawyers’ duty to report other lawyers’ misconduct
