“The World has Changed…Let’s Sort it Out.” The upheaval we’ve experienced over the past few years has had a profound impact on lawyers. Whether we are in-house counsel or working in a firm, there are certain ethics and professionalism issues we all have to deal with – hybrid work arrangements, tech issues, the challenge of supervising from a distance…and the overarching concern about continuing to behave like a proper legal professional. Join Stuart Teicher, Esq., “The CLE Performer,” as he explores the danger zones. Topics include:

• How some of the fundamental aspects of the practice have changed, including competence, supervision, and communication;
• Tech might have changed, but our duty to act professionally has not;

This interactive discussion is intended to focus attendees on the key issues in commercial leases from the corporate counsel’s perspective, under the assumption that the corporate counsel is not the primary lease negotiator. It is the presenter’s hope that the topics introduced – operating expense pass throughs, assignment and sublet provisions, and work letter issues, to name a few – will prompt questions from attendees and discussions about “real life examples” of commercial lease issues that keep corporate counsel up at night.”
