A pre-recorded streaming VIDEO replay of one session from the February live seminar, 55th Annual Criminal Law 2025.
Sponsored by Virginia CLE® in Cooperation with the Section on Criminal Law of the Virginia State Bar
No attorney practicing law in Virginia relishes receiving the dreaded envelope from the Virginia State Bar marked “Personal and Confidential.” In this hour of ethics, former Assistant Bar Counsel Paulo E. Franco, Jr., and William W. Tunner will provide you with an overview of the Virginia Attorney Disciplinary System and tips for navigating the process should you be on the receiving end of a complaint. They will also offer some tips and ethical considerations concerning fee agreements, such as how to handle flat fees to keep meritless bar complaints from turning into trust account violation cases. The session will conclude with some hypotheticals regarding ethical issues that confront attorneys in the criminal justice system.
