The use of artificial intelligence is not some distant prospect. Many of the tools lawyers use today – online research platforms that suggest other areas for research, software packages that help complete forms or propose or assemble language, and discovery tools that sort through documents – are driven by artificial intelligence. These and other AI engineered legal tools raise substantial ethical issues. Are they the unauthorized practice of law? Have lawyers researched their capabilities such that they are competent to use them? How must lawyers supervise their use by non-lawyer staff? This program will provide you with a guide to ethics issues when using software and other technology tools based on AI in law practice.

Technology allows lawyers far more flexibility to practice law virtually – from home or in shared settings – than ever before. No longer must they maintain freestanding offices, support staff, and libraries. Lawyers can set-up offices in their homes, communicate with clients, adversaries and the courts electronically, outsource overflow work to co-counsel or vendors, and establish web sites that can reach potential clients. These “virtual” practices are increasingly commonplace, but the relative ease with which they are established obscures many significant ethical issues. This program will provide you with a practical guide to significant issues when lawyers and law firms establish “virtual” law practices.
LIVE EVENT: Ethics for Business Lawyers (Live Audio Streaming) Ethics for Business Lawyers Sponsored by the Idaho Law Foundation, Inc. in partnership with Freestone and WebCredenza, Inc.

Lawyers advising businesses on transactions or negotiating on their behalf often confront a range of important ethical questions. The biggest is, who is your client? Often a company’s owners or managers will not understand the distinction between representing them and representing the company? There are also issues of identifying and clearing conflicts among clients when they are negotiating transaction. And what can a lawyer say or do when negotiating for a client? Also, lawyers are sometimes confronted with issues about what to do when clients are dishonest. This program will provide you with a real world guide to ethical issues when representing clients in business transactions.
LIVE EVENT: Ethics in Discovery Practice (Live Audio Streaming) Ethics in Discovery Practice Sponsored by the Idaho Law Foundation, Inc. in partnership with Freestone and WebCredenza, Inc.
November 1, 2024 11:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. (MT) *Live Audio Streaming Only 1.0 Ethics credit Registration Fee: $55.00
Discovery can be the most important phase of litigation, directing the course and outcome of the case. How evidence is discovered, how it is used, and how mistakes in its handling are disclosed and remedied all raise very significant ethical issues. These issues – the risk of mishandling – are increased by the vast growth of ESI, electronically stored information. Litigators have certain obligations that their vendors comply with ethics rules. There are also issues surrounding the use of paralegals in discovery practice. Failure to ensure ethics compliance during discovery can have a material adverse impact on the underlying litigation and draw an ethics complaint. This program will provide you with a real-world guide to substantial issues ethical issues that arise in discovery practice and how to avoid ethics complaints.
LIVE EVENT: Ethics in Trust and Estate Practice (Live Audio Streaming) Ethics in Trust and Estate Practice Sponsored by the Idaho Law Foundation, Inc. in partnership with Freestone and WebCredenza, Inc.
November 13, 2024 11:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. (MT) *Live Audio Streaming Only 1.0 Ethics credit Registration Fee: $55.00
Trust and estate practice often sits at the intersection of money, aging clients, family drama, easy accusations of self-dealing and misdeeds, dispute – and anger. This turbulent combination of circumstances can put attorneys in difficult ethical spots. Questions about the competence of aging clients in combination with family drama can easily lead to ethical complaints and eventually litigation. There are also issues of decision-making authority and confidentiality if someone other than the client is paying for the representation. Conflicts of interest, especially where a longtime client may gift something to the attorney, are rife. This program will provide you with a practical guide to substantial ethical issues in trust and estate practice.
LIVE EVENT: Evidentiary Issues with Text and "Chat" Messages (Live Audio Streaming) Evidentiary Issues with Text and "Chat" Messages Sponsored by the Idaho Law Foundation, Inc. in partnership with Freestone and WebCredenza, Inc.
May 9, 2024 11:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. (MT) *Live Audio Streaming Only 1.0 CLE credit Registration Fee: $55.00
Text messaging is mainstream. Clients generate virtual reams of data when they message with business partners, vendors, employees, and even public. This is a rich vein of electronically stored information that is potentially discoverable in formal litigation or pre-litigation. Because texting is so convenient, casual and almost reflexive, the caution clients exercise in other forms of communication are often disregarded when texting, including when they text with their lawyers. This program will provide you with a practical guide to obtaining text messages, the risks of discovery in litigation, and related issues.
LIVE EVENT: Lawyer Ethics and Disputes with Clients (Live Audio Streaming) Lawyer Ethics and Disputes with Clients Sponsored by the Idaho Law Foundation, Inc. in partnership with Freestone and WebCredenza, Inc.
August 5, 2024 11:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. (MT) *Live Audio Streaming Only 1.0 Ethics credit Registration Fee: $55.00
Ethical tensions are perhaps never as great as when a lawyer is in dispute with a client. The dispute may arise over fees, communication, perceived conflicts of interest, or something else. In these and other circumstances, the lawyer’s duties of loyalty, zealous representation and confidentiality are all brought into direct conflict with the lawyer’s interest in self-defense. In these extremely delicate circumstances, the lawyer must determine what information may disclosed in his or her self-defense, its impact on the attorney-client privilege, and what steps he or she can take to de-escalate the conflict. This program will provide you with a real-world guide to the ethical issues for a lawyer when he or she is in conflict with a client.
LIVE EVENT: Lawyer Ethics and Email (Live Audio Streaming) Lawyer Ethics and Email Sponsored by the Idaho Law Foundation, Inc. in partnership with Freestone and WebCredenza, Inc.
May 22, 2024 11:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. (MT) *Live Audio Streaming Only 1.0 Ethics credit Registration Fee: $55.00
Email has become essential to law practice. Communications with clients and colleagues is practically impossible – and absolutely inefficient – without email. But the ubiquity of email may obscure many important ethical issues that arise when it is used in law practice, including issues related to confidentiality, metadata, and the attorney-client privilege. These and other substantial ethical questions will be discussed in this practical guide to the ethical issues when lawyers use email in their practices.
LIVE EVENT: The Ethics of Bad Facts and Bad Law (Live Audio Streaming) The Ethics of Bad Facts and Bad Law Sponsored by the Idaho Law Foundation, Inc. in partnership with Freestone and WebCredenza, Inc.
June 27, 2024 11:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. (MT) *Live Audio Streaming Only 1.0 Ethics credit Registration Fee: $55.00
Every lawyer wrestles with how to handle facts or law that is unfavorable to a client. There is a natural tension between a lawyer’s duty to be honest, on the one hand, and the lawyer’s duty to provide zealous representation of a client. In some instances, bad facts or bad law must be disclosed. In other instances, disclosure is not required. How this tension is resolved involves substantial ethical issues. This program will discuss the ethics issues involved and how they may be resolved in a practical setting. Ethical issues surrounding the representation of adverse facts to tribunals and adversaries
LIVE REPLAY: Ethical Issues When You Have a Dishonest Client (Live Audio Streaming) Ethical Issues When You Have a Dishonest Client Sponsored by the Idaho Law Foundation, Inc. in partnership with Freestone and WebCredenza, Inc.
November 27, 2024 11:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. (MT) **Live Audio Stream Only 1.0 Ethics credit Registration Fee: $55.00
One of the dangers of practicing law is that, now and again, you get a dishonest client. Your client may be misleading you – and others – about the facts of their case, either through silence or affirmative misstatements. Or they may be telling you one thing and others something else different. You may discover proof of the dishonesty or just suspect it. Client dishonesty raises many ethical issues. What must you do to ensure your client is telling you the truth? What if you discover a client is lying to a court or tribunal? Are you allowed to disclose the dishonesty despite the duty of client confidentiality? Are there degrees of client dishonesty – some acceptable, others not? This program will provide you with a guide to the substantial ethical issues when client dishonesty is discovered or suspected.

Despite best efforts, lawyers may develop ethical conflicts with their clients. Sometimes these conflicts may initially seem like positive developments. The lawyer may seek to buy into a client’s business enterprise or participate in a transaction, be offered a gift by a client, or even develop a romantic relationship with a client. But these and many others come with substantial ethical issues. Sometimes these conflicts may be more immediately problematic, as when a lawyer leaves a law firm and wants to take his or her clients to the new firm, or when a client refuses to pay legal fees, or worse, as when the lawyer has a duty to disclose certain acts of his or her own malpractice. This program will provide you with a real world guide to lawyer conflicts with their clients and how to avoid or resolve them. Day 1:

Lawyers must always be truthful in their representations. Yet they must be zealous in representing clients. The tension between these two principles is perhaps never as great as when the lawyer is negotiating for a client. The lawyer may make statements about the law or fact – or simply refrain from making statements because the lawyer knows certain facts or legal precedent are adverse to a client’s interest. Lawyers may also boast, signaling that a client’s position is stronger than is, in fact, the case. Navigating these gray lines is the difference between ethical representation and impropriety. This program will provide you with a guide to ethical issues in negotiations.

The first step in every ethics analysis is answering the question, who is your client? It’s seemingly a very easy question to answer, but it’s not always 20/20 except in hindsight. Representing multiple parties on the same matter, whether in litigation or on a transaction, may mean you have many clients, some or all with conflicts. If you’re a private practitioner and you represent an organization, your client may be the entity, its officers from whom you are taking directions, or possibly both. If you’re an in-house attorney, the analysis – and its implications for the attorney-client privilege – becomes even more complex. This program will provide you with a real world guide to ethics of identifying your client in a variety of settings avoiding conflicts of interest with the client.

The real estate industry is fiercely competitive as developers and contractors, investors and lenders, brokers and others—often with the aid of legal counsel—seek advantage. This can easily present real estate lawyers with ethical dilemmas. Conflicts of interest are rife. There are issues of communicating and negotiating with unrepresented parties. There are also concerns related to taking an equity stake in a real estate venture in lieu of fees. Sometimes, too, there is the discovery that a client is engaged in wrongdoing. This program provides you with a real-world guide to common ethics issues in real estate practice.

Ethics rules, the principles of professionalism, and sanctionable conduct are interrelated. Lawyers have a duty to zealously represent their clients, but they do not have a duty to engage in offensive conduct that may be desired by clients. Lawyers have duties of confidentiality and honesty, but those duties do not always require pressing every advantage, such as when the lawyer knows that opposing counsel has made a material drafting error in a transactional document. In these and many other scenarios, ethics rules, professionalism, and potentially sanctionable conduct subtly interact. This program will provide you with a practical guide to professionalism for the ethical lawyer.
