Every transactional attorney must be aware of the
ethical issues that are unique to the area of law in which they practice.
These issues may arise in the context of business transactions, mergers and
acquisitions, real estate and/or trust and estate matters. You need to be on
the lookout for issues relating to confidentiality, conflicts of interest,
and other matters that can lead to potential ethical problems for you and
your clients.
During this practical program, a panel of New Jersey
authorities will familiarize you with the common ethical pitfalls you may
confront in each type of transactional practice. They will show you how to
recognize ethical dilemmas, how to guard against them, and what to do if you
are caught in such a situation.
