Most of us have worked almost exclusively remotely for more than a year. By this time, many lawyers have fallen into a routine in our new work environments. It is easy, after such a long time, to develop certain habits that could create an ethical minefield. This presentation focuses on lawyers’ responsibilities under the applicable Rules of Professional Conduct, regardless of the location we now call our “office.” And who better to guide us through an exploration of these issues than our friends on “The Office”?

Discussion topics will include lawyers’ duties to safeguard confidential information, maintain technological proficiency and diligence in a constantly changing situation, avoid the unauthorized practice of law in the context of remote work, and supervise both lawyers and non-lawyer employees even in a remote environment.

The training is approved for MCLE credit in California, Illinois, New Jersey (through reciprocity), New York, and Pennsylvania. Credit for other jurisdictions may be available upon request. Please email clemanagement@troutman.com to register.

Many litigators write well. But how many write like Elena Kagan, Paul Clement, Seth Waxman, Walter Dellinger, Ted Olson, Maureen Mahoney, Eric Holder, David Boies, John Roberts, or Brendan Sullivan?

If you want to get closer to the top, this workshop with Ross Guberman offers concrete ways to do so.

After reviewing more than 500 motions and briefs from the most renowned advocates, Ross has identified specific techniques for everything from the first line of the introduction to the final sentence of the argument section. Examples come from dozens of advocates, dozens of trial and appellate filings, and specialties ranging from intellectual property to torts and criminal law.

In three hours, you’ll go on a fast-paced tour of the best practices in advocacy writing.
