HIGHLIGHTS WE THINK WILL INTEREST YOU INCLUDE

Paralegal ethics: No license, no worries, right?

Not exactly. Increased awareness, increased responsibility and increased regulation of paralegals equal the need for specific knowledge and training in legal ethics. Paralegals have become the right hand (and maybe even the left hand) of many attorneys. Without paralegals, law offices would be unable to meet the client's needs. Although paralegals do not need a license in Texas, there have been increasing efforts to monitor and regulate the profession parallel to the regulation for attorneys. Attend this seminar and learn how you need to comply with the same ethics as an attorney in order to protect the client's interest ? and the attorney's license!

Benefits for You

*	Learn the basics of the ethics rules governing attorneys and the prevailing ethics rules for paralegals
*	Stay out of trouble by avoiding the unauthorized practice of law
*	Get a handle on common ethics issues and how to prevent them
