SUMMARY:Webinar: Pursuing Client Advocacy Within the Bounds of Civility and Professional Standards: What’s Zeal Got to Do with It?
DESCRIPTION:**Program hosted in (ET) Time Zone** \nIn a recent Missouri case\, a lawyer failed to appear for a civil trial with a mutually agreed upon date.  Judgment was entered against his client.  The lawyer appealed\, arguing that it was an abuse of discretion for the trial court to have proceeded in his absence without at least a courtesy call (by either the Court or the opposing counsel).  Although the appellate court upheld the judgment\, the Court agreed that a courtesy call would have been “the better practice.”  In support for that statement\, the Court cited a section of the Preamble to the Rules of Professional Conduct: “A lawyer has the obligation to ‘zealously’ protect and pursue his or her client’s legitimate interests within the bounds of the law ‘while maintaining a professional\, courteous\, and civil attitude toward all persons involved in the legal system.’” \nAre there circumstances in which there is an ethical duty to remind your opposing counsel of a court date?  To what extent may your duty to your client conflict with your professional obligations? These concepts will be explored in this seminar. \nPresented by the FBA’s Professional Development Committee Ethics Subcommittee. \nRegister Now!\n\nPresenter\nDenise M. Quinterri focuses her practice on legal ethics and professional responsibility.  She formerly served as Bar Counsel for the State Bar of Arizona.  After leaving the Bar she worked for David D. Dodge\, a highly respected ethics attorney\, with whom she continued to collaborate until his retirement.  Ms. Quinterri represents lawyers in State Bar proceedings (“Bar complaints”) and applicants in the Character and Fitness process.  She also provides expert opinion letters.  She enjoys presenting at the occasional CLE seminar or conference and is an active member of the Association of Professional Responsibility Lawyers.  Ms. Quinterri has been recognized in The Best Lawyers in America© for Ethics and Professional Responsibility and is rated AV® Preeminent™ by Martindale-Hubbell. \nMs. Quinterri is highly experienced in lawyer discipline\, having personally handled well over 500 bar complaints.  She has represented over 300 applicants to the State Bar of Arizona in the Character and Fitness process.  She understands various aspects of the practice\, having worked at a large law firm\, a small to mid-size law firm\, as a solo attorney\, and for a non-profit\, quasi-governmental organization. \n\nRegister Now!\n\nLive Broadcast | FBA Member: $0\nLive Broadcast | Nonmember: $95\nOn-Demand Broadcast | FBA Member: $50\nOn-Demand Broadcast | Nonmember: $95\n\n\nCLE\nPlease note: CLE for this webinar has not been pre-approved.\nMyLaw and the FBA will seek 2.0 General CLE credit hours in 60-minute states\, and 2.4 General CLE credit hours in 50-minute states. \nPosted credit hours are estimated and subject to respective state approval and rounding rules.
