The Growing Storm: The Ethics of Representing Clients In Matters Impacting Climate Change [CC]

The Growing Storm: The Ethics of Representing Clients In Matters Impacting Climate Change [CC] — ETHICS 60 min

As the climate crisis escalates, questions of accountability within the legal profession have prompted an examination of lawyers�� professional responsibilities in this context. Clients choose their lawyers, and lawyers�� representations under Model Rule of Professional Conduct 1.2 are not to constitute an endorsement of the client��s political, economic, social or moral views or activities. Nevertheless, lawyers may find themselves characterized as enablers of climate change because of who they represent or the subject matter of their representation.

Join us for this exciting and interactive discussion, featuring Shawn M. Harpen, Attorney, Corporate Governance, Legal Ethics & Sustainability and Victor B. Flatt, Dwight Olds Chair and Professor of Law & Co-director Environment, Energy, and Natural Resources (EENR) Center, University of Houston Law Center, and Margaret E. Peloso, Partner, Environment & Natural Resources, Vincent & Elkins. These experts will educate attendees about the current legal landscape, including practice areas most commonly impacted by climate change. With that table set, they will help attendees navigate their ethical responsibilities, including those relating to: Model Rule 1.1 (Competence); Model Rule 1.6 (Confidentiality) and the interplay between the permissive exceptions to that Model Rule and Model Rules 1.13 (Organization as Client), 3.3 (Candor Toward the Tribunal), and Model Rule 4.1 (Truthfulness in Statements to Others); as well as Model Rule 1.16 (Declining or Terminating Representation).
