Live Webinar: Balancing Zeal and Professionalism
This CLE course examines the evolving concept of “zealous advocacy” and its proper role in modern legal practice.

Live Webinar: From Payroll to Pleadings: The Ethics Zone Framework for Deploying AI Across Every Layer of Law Firm Practice
Every law firm is using AI. Very few can explain why the way they're using it is ethically defensible. The problem isn't recklessness. It's that existing guidance treats AI as a single category of risk, offering the same vague caution whether you're automating payroll or drafting a motion for summary judgment. These are not the same activity, they do not carry the same ethical obligations, and they should not be governed by the same policy. This CLE introduces the Ethics Zone Framework,... More Info

From High-Functioning to Non-Functioning: Addressing Mental Health and Substance Misuse in the Legal Profession
“Maybe I drink more than I should, but it isn’t affecting my life—I’m ‘high-functioning.’”. “I’m fine. I just have a lot on my mind, but it’s nothing I can’t handle on my own.” Sound familiar? Many professionals have heard—or said—something similar. Whether the underlying issue involves substance use, mental health challenges, trauma, or other stress-related factors, people often delay seeking help if they are still able to maintain their personal and professional responsibilities....

This CLE program examines how behavioral addictions and compulsive disorders related to eating, sexual behavior, and exercise can develop, how t... More Info

Your AI Use Might Be an Ethics Violation: Evaluating Today’s AI Providers Using the Ethics Zone Framework
Are you using AI to draft briefs, analyze case law, or communicate with clients? Depending on which plan you're on, you may already be in violation of your ethical obligations, and most lawyers have no idea. AI tools have enormous potential to transform legal practice, but they carry drastically different levels of appropriateness depending on the type of work involved. Not all AI subscriptions are created equal: different plans at the same provider can have radically different terms governing... More Info

Burnout, Motivation, and Long-Term Sustainability in Legal Practice
