Ethics CLE Lunch & Learn - An Attorney's Ethical Obligation to Lose

What happens when a client wants to pursue a position that is unlikely to succeed? This CLE explores the tension between client objectives and an attorney’s ethical and professional responsibilities when advocating a weak or losing position. Presenters Michael K. Alston and Madeline Leonard Phifer will discuss the line between losing and frivolous arguments, applicable professional conduct rules and sanctions, and practical strategies for providing candid advice while continuing to advocate effectively for the client.
