Bsiness lawyers confront many competing and sometimes conflicting demands on their professional advice—all of which can give rise to difficult ethical challenges. Increased regulatory scrutiny of businesses and the growing prevalence of internal investigations have served to increase pressure on business lawyers, too. This program reviews the sources of ethical rules for business lawyers and the substantial ethical issues that arise in business law practice. The program also discusses practical techniques for resolving ethical tensions when the organization’s legal interests may substantially diverge from its officers’ and ethically sound practices in the conduct of internal investigations.
- Determining the identity of your client and to whom you report
- Practical tensions between organizational interests and officers’ interests
- Reporting wrong-doing to boards of directors and to outside authorities
- Ethics in the conduct of internal corporate investigations
- Ethical obligations imposed by regulatory authorities, including the IRS and SEC
