SACRAMENTONatalie P. Vance, Managing Shareholder of Klinedinst PC’s Sacramento office, conducted a Lorman Education Services legal ethics webinar on Monday, June 27, 2016.

With technology rapidly changing how people communicate, gather information, and how courts evaluate attorney conduct, the use of California’s ethical rules to practice law has continued to expand. Ms. Vance offered attorneys and legal assistants practical guidance and valuable insight to better understand the connection between the California Rules of Professional Conduct governing the profession and social media. Furthermore, recent court decisions have forced attorneys to reassess how they manage certain situations. This webinar illustrated how to recognize and manage conflicts of interest in joint representation settings, to disclose professional relationships, and to properly and effectively settle disputes.

Ms. Vance is a California legal malpractice specialist who has represented attorneys and law firms in litigation and state bar proceedings for more than 15 years. She frequently conducts seminars and workshops on California legal ethics and attorney malpractice. Ms. Vance contributes to the professional ethics column in the Daily Journal, and is Vice Chair of the California State Bar Commission on Legal Malpractice Law Specialization.
