The story of the Alex Murdaugh Murder Trial is a story of substance abuse, disregard for lawyer ethics, and murder. And yes, the three are related. From small town USA, the Murdaugh family has controlled the law in Hampton County for almost 100 years. Corners were cut. Misdeeds ignored. Could this include murder? A jury, after hearing about Alex Murdaugh’s ethical violations and the facts surrounding the murder of his wife and son, convicted him of first-degree murder in less than 3 hours. This amazing story, that grabbed America’s attention like no other recent case save People v. OJ, is a cautionary tale about the dangerous lures of power, greed and substance abuse in the practice of law.

Important Information Regarding Registration

1. Do not wait until 2 minutes before the webinar to register with Zoom if possible, as you cannot log in until you get the email from Zoom and while email is usually instantaneous, we all know that isn’t always the case.
2. You must be watching the webinar in order to get credit.  Most states accredit webinars differently than other formats and in order to get webinar credit, you must be watching, not just listening using the audio only link.
3. There will be poll questions every hour, as many states require them.  If you don’t answer the poll question and your state requires them, we can’t award credit for that hour.  The poll questions are NOT obscure, as Joel always announces them before he runs them, and he reads them out loud.  If your state requires you answer them, please don’t miss them.  Please note that you will not be able to answer poll questions if you are using an audio only link, which is another reason you need to be WATCHING (not just listening to audio only version) the video presentation.
