Minnesota attorneys are required to take 45 credit hours every 3 years including 3 credit hours of Ethics and Professionalism, with a minimum of 2 credits of Elimination of Bias.
Effective January 1, 2024, there is no limit to the number of on-demand CLE credits a Minnesota lawyer may report towards their three-year reporting period. Approved courses viewed after January 1, 2024, towards the 2024 reporting period (or later) are not subject to a credit cap.
Beginning July 1, 2024, MN attorneys are required to take 1 credit in Mental Health and Substance Use Disorder. Compliance Group 1 (CLE due by 6/30/2024) is not required to complete this new credit type requirement until their new compliance period begins. Category 2 lawyers due to report in 2025 will be the first group of lawyers subject to this requirement.
Minnesota attorneys can earn all 45 CLE credit hours with us including 3 credit hours of Ethics and 2 credit hours of Elimination of Bias using our Online, iOS/Android App, and Live Webinar courses.

About This Course
Lawyers generally understand that tax is a niche practice area with unique characteristics. The distinguishing factors include not only the technical aspects of the discipline, but also the way practitioners need to mind ethical standards.
On top of the ABA Model Rules and the ethics codes of the individual states, tax lawyers also answer to IRS Circular 230. They also must navigate the various penalties set forth in the Internal Revenue Code. For opinion practice, tax attorneys look to the relevant Treasury Regulations. These extra sources of ethical authority create even more interesting ethical conundrums than non-tax practice.
This presentation will recap each part of the ethical regime governing tax lawyers, then identify and address challenging fact patterns that listeners are likely to encounter in real life.
