Hinshaw & Culbertson LLP attorney,
Anthony E. Davis, will be a featured speaker at a Lorman teleconference "Conflicts of Interest: Identification and Waivers," on Thursday, December 1, 2008 from 1:00 to 2:30 p.m. EST.
Conflicts of interest pose enormous risks to lawyers and their firms, including disqualification, disgorgement of fees, loss of clients and even professional discipline. Dealing with conflicts of interest is therefore one of the most important — and complex — components of a law firm's risk management program.
During his presentation, Mr. Davis will be discussing:
- How to improve policies and procedures for identifying and managing conflicts of interest
- current and future client conflicts
- former client conflicts
- busienss and personal conflicts
- third party payor and similar conflicts
- To identify which conflicts are — and which ones are not — waiveable
- To understand what to say — and what not to say — in waiver letters
- the importance of disclosure in obtaining informed consent
- the usefulness — and inherent limitations — of advance conflict waivers

- Attorneys
