Panelists will share real-world experiences and provide actionable guidance on key issues including continuing disclosure obligations, managing conflicts at law firms versus independent practice, the lawyer’s role in advising clients on disclosures, raising timely objections and navigating the nuanced distinctions between disclosable circumstances and actual conflicts that warrant declining appointments.
