December 20 @ 12:30 pm - 1:30 pm
Soft Skills for a Hard World: Legal Edition
1.0 Ethics
Presenters:
Denise Blommel, Attorney
Don Doerres, Retired Engineer
Ethical Rule 1.1 requires lawyers to provide competent representation to a client, involving, inter alia, skill and preparation. Comment 5 to the Rule states that competent handling of a matter includes inquiry into the facts and adequate preparation and attention. Communication is the primary skill attorneys need to prepare and attend to their clients.
Ethical Rules 5.1 and 5.3 require managing lawyers to properly supervise their staff. Communication is the primary skill supervisors need on a daily basis.
Our focus will be on the specific art and practice of Listening. We also will present the Seven Steps to Solution, which are valuable in dealing with clients, adversaries, decisionmakers, friends, family, and life.
