A LIVE AND INTERACTIVE TELEPHONE SEMINAR FROM VIRGINIA CLE

LIVE (Eastern Time): Tuesday, August 24 / 12:00 noon–1:00 p.m.
REPLAY (Eastern Time): Wednesday, September 22 / 12:00 noon–1:00 p.m.

Program Level: Basic

Here's what Virginia attorneys have to say about Stuart Teicher's programs:

"Great delivery—excellent examples: speaker was easy to listen to."

"Very clear, added items not mentioned in materials to make points."


COURSE OVERVIEW

Stuart Teicher's programs empower lawyers to succeed.


Using a "rules as tools" approach, Teicher pulls together the important lessons that he has learned in his 15-year career as a legal ethics investigator and practicing attorney with the goal of protecting attorneys from ever having to utter the words, "If I only knew then what I know now...."

Listen in on this unique seminar for a blend of motivational speech, humorous commentary, and interesting life lessons, all of which are firmly grounded in the ethics rules.

QUESTION-AND-ANSWER SESSION

At the end of the program, you can push a number on your touch-tone phone and be placed in a queue for questions. When it’s your turn, you enter the conference call in a mode that allows your question to be heard by the speakers and the rest of the telephone audience. The speakers will then discuss the question with you.
