FEATURED TALKS
Ethical Fitness® and the Practicing Attorney
The practice of law has a well-deserved reputation as presenting some
of the most stressful, complicated ethical questions of any profession.
Yet beneath the codified rules of professional conduct lies a core of
shared ethical values and a framework of ethical principles that, when
properly applied, can guide attorneys through a process for analyzing
and resolving the toughest ethical dilemmas they'll face - even when
two or more core ethical values come into conflict. Ethical Fitness and
the Practicing Attorney explores how attorneys, regardless of firm size
or practice area, can begin developing what the Institute for Global Ethics
calls "Ethical Fitness" so that attorneys can make better decisions
in the stressful, high-stakes legal environment.
