Dr. Martin Luther King once said, “A fact is the absence of contradiction, but the truth is the presence of coherence.” As lawyers, we are duty bound to be more than just factual. Lawyers must tell the truth to clients, judges and even opposing counsel and third parties. In this eye-opening webinar, legal humorist Sean Carter will deal frankly with the very human inclination for dishonesty and explain how to avoid the traps from which dishonesty most often springs. In doing so, he will draw upon current and past nominees from his annual Ethy Awards to show the consequences of dishonesty.

Faculty
Sean Carter is a Harvard Law grad, who spent a decade practicing securities law before leaving the practice of law to pursue a career as the country’s foremost Humorist at Law.

Since then, Mr. Carter has crisscrossed the country delivering comedic professional educational seminars for more than 350 legal organizations in three dozen states. His presentation topics run the gamut from legal ethics to stress management to diversity. Yet, all of his presentations have one thing in common –humor and plenty of it.

In fact, in 2003, Mr. Carter was dubbed “America’s Funniest Lawyer” by The Radio and Television Interview Report.

Finally, Sean lives in Mesa, Arizona with his wife and four sons.
