Legal Ethics When Advising on, Documenting, and Resolving Real Estate Matters

Using practical examples and real-world scenarios, Jennifer Felten, RELAW, APC, will address conflicts of interest, identifying the client, joint representation, confidentiality, competence, dual professional roles, truthfulness, supervision, and withdrawal. The program will also explore the ethical risks that arise when attorneys are asked to "just prepare the documents," communicate through brokers or family members, rely on forms or artificial intelligence, or assist with transactions involving incomplete or questionable facts.
