About This Course

We all know that CLE programs are boring and a chore to watch. But we’re breaking the rules: a CLE program that’s intentionally funny and (gasp) entertaining, yet somehow still informative.

In the latest installment of this popular series, Mark Wooster examines the legal ethics duties of fictional lawyers in two popular television series that seem to have abandoned any desire to follow ethical rules or even basic morality.

Explore key ethical concepts and potential violations, including:

  • Lying to clients and the duty of candor
  • Assisting in the unauthorized practice of law
  • Hindering prosecution and conduct prejudicial to justice
  • Ethical considerations in settlement negotiations, including threatening criminal or disciplinary charges
  • Suborning perjury and candor towards the tribunal

Reserve your seat today and we’ll waive the two-drink minimum!
