The very first rule of the ethics canon calls for lawyers to provide competent representation to clients. Yet, mere competence isn’t enough to satisfy our ethical obligations to our clients. We must instead strive for excellence. In this unique webinar, noted legal humorist Sean Carter will highlight the need for excellence in client service and demonstrate their consequences of mediocrity by recounting the sagas of past Ethy Award nominees — lawyers who earned CLE infamy for the failure to provide excellent client service.
