Change is inevitable at some point in your legal career. Whether you are moving to a new firm, going in-house, exploring law-adjacent roles, or leaving the legal world altogether, employment transitions can be both exciting and daunting. OSB Deputy General Counsel Nik Chourey and PLF Practice Management Attorney Rachel Edwards will dive into the unique challenges and opportunities legal practitioners often face during professional pivots.
This free live webinar will be held on Wednesday, June 11, 2025, from 10:00 to 11:30 a.m.
From understanding your ethical obligations as they apply to these transitions to practical guidance for ensuring the process goes smoothly for all involved, we’ll explore strategies and share stories to help you thrive in the face of uncertainty. Specifically, we will discuss common issues, proper notification to clients, fiduciary and contractual responsibilities, withdrawal from representation, file and funds transfer, and conflict avoidance when joining another organization. Whatever your individual experience, this session offers valuable insights for every legal professional throughout the transition process.
This webinar has been approved for 1 Ethics and 0.5 Practical Skills MCLE Credits.
Registration deadline is noon on Monday, June 9, 2025.
