Most jurisdictions that require attorneys to participate in continuing legal education currently allow some or all mandatory CLE credits to be earned online. In compliance with the mandatory CLE requirements of many jurisdictions, MCLEs live webcast programs include periodic attendance prompts and the opportunity to forward written questions to the faculty during the program. At the conclusion of a program, viewers are given the opportunity to fill out an evaluation form and download or print a certificate of attendance, a copy of which will also be saved for future reference in your "My MCLE" account on our website. If you intend to take an MCLE webcast program for mandatory credit, please contact your state mandatory CLE authority prior to registering to confirm that the webcast program will satisfy your states requirements.

Three very experienced lawyers discuss the application of ethical rules in the unique context of insolvency. Whether or not an attorney is an expert in insolvency or bankruptcy, the risks of committing an ethical violation, even inadvertently, loom large. Questions which appear simple-whether and how a client can change the ownership of assets, whether an attorney can simultaneously represent the owner of a business and the business, and from whom can a professional attorney accept fees-are fraught with danger, or at a minimum, embarrassment, for counsel.

The goal of the program is to help you identify how ethical standards-which were not drafted with a focus on insolvencies-can affect your practice, and how decisions which might be appropriate in the normal practice of law could create peril for an attorney in a context where any of the parties may be insolvent. Recognize and learn to skillfully navigate the ethical landmines potentially lurking in matters involving insolvent or bankrupt parties.
