A pre-recorded streaming VIDEO replay of one session from the March 2018 live seminar, 22nd Annual Advanced Real Estate.
Cosponsored with the Real Property Section of the Virginia State Bar
This session considers various ethical issues faced by the real estate practitioner, including the role of attorneys and potential conflicts of interest in real estate transactions, issues relating to confidentiality and disclosure of client information, and unauthorized practice of law concerns in real estate transactions. This session also considers the various ethical considerations of the intersection between technology, cybersecurity, and the practice of real estate law. From the highly sensitive personal information a real estate lawyer handles to wire transfers to electronic recording of deeds, real estate is constantly evolving and cyber threats are also. The session will include analysis of specific ethical scenarios. Professionalism and best practices considerations beyond the baseline ethical requirements will also be discussed.
