Lawyers as the public conscience of their clients
On October 16, as part of their joint professional development seminar, Current Topics in Ethics & Professionalism, the Toronto Lawyers Association and University of Toronto’s Centre for the Legal Profession will be staging “A Great Debate: Should Lawyers Consider Themselves the Moral Conscience of their Clients?” I will be debating in favour of the resolution.
If you are attending and want to prep for the debate, or can’t make it, read my September, 2013, column in the Canadian Lawyer entitled “Lawyers and their demons.” (click on graphic, above right)
