Stuart will discuss whether lawyers can accept cryptocurrencies for legal fees, Fee splitting with other lawyers, when people fight over trust account funds, and the problem of the flat fee.

The purpose of this program isn’t to convince you that we should actually outlaw Twitter, nor do I honestly think I’d be successful in doing so (for reasons I’ll discuss below). The purpose of this program is to talk about concepts of professionalism in the practice of law. I want to show you how concepts of professionalism ask lawyers to aspire to something higher and how Twitter causes us to do the exact opposite. When we use that medium we are, far too often, behaving in a way that is antithetical to concepts of attorney professionalism. So whether you agree with me or not, hopefully you’ll at least learn about important concepts of professionalism.

In this session, we will deep dive into the best negotiation strategies, how to effectively communicate your vision, and negotiate with the board.

With these issues continuing to escalate and consumers demanding better, many businesses must take action now. In this session, we will explore how you can take control of your ESG data narrative to drive a positive impact on the environment.

In the session, we will look to the role General Counsel and legal teams have in developing an emergency response plan.
