Description

In construction law, there are ethical dilemmas at every phase of a project, from first consultation through drafting contract clauses and litigating a dispute. This course addresses ethical dilemmas attorneys encounter when representing parties in construction transactions and litigation.

Through real-world transactional and former employee hypotheticals, our experienced panelists provide "practice tips" based on applicable provisions of the Model Rules of Professional Conduct and existing case law to help you stay out of trouble.

After listening to this course, you should be able to:

  • Identify the rules that govern your conduct when representing parties in construction transactions and litigation
  • Discuss the professional responsibilities owed to opposing counsel and ground rules that govern contacting former employees of parties in construction litigation
  • Recognize issues that can potentially violate ethical and professional responsibilities
  • Reconcile differences in professional conduct rules that impact several jurisdictions
