Professionalism, Please! A Civility CLE
An Evening with Hon. John Holcomb
The legal profession is built upon the pillars of advocacy, ethics, and respect. Yet, we find ourselves in an era where the limits of professionalism are often tested.
Join us for an insightful and authoritative discussion on civility in the legal profession, featuring The Honorable John W. Holcomb of the United States District Court for the Central District of California. Our presentation will explore the evolution of the California State Bar’s stance on civility, the increasing scrutiny of professional conduct, and real-world examples of where incivility in the courtroom has led to substantive legal consequences for clients and their attorneys.
Key Topics Include:
The historical and evolving role of civility in legal ethics
The California State Bar’s heightened focus on attorney professionalism
A case study of incivility resulting in judicial sanctions, adverse rulings, and professional discipline.
This presentation offers a critical opportunity for attorneys to reflect on their professional responsibilities and gain valuable insights into how civility—or the lack thereof—can shape outcomes in litigation and beyond.
