Exploring modern legal ethics through famous fictional lawyers and real-world case law.
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.

Come for the outrageous examples of racism and sexism – and stay for the elimination of bias credit. Reserve your seat today and we’ll waive the two-drink minimum.
