Standout lawyers are continually striving to act in accordance with the highest standard of professionalism. They treat opponents courteously and fairly, they demonstrate the highest respect for Judges and the judicial process, and they zealously, but respectfully, advocate for their clients.  Professionalism is a higher standard than ethical behavior and it’s an important part of our self-regulated industry. This panel discussion will present numerous examples and tips for maintaining this high level of professionalism in your practice.
