The Core of Your Profession is Civility is designed to remind us that how we practice law matters just as much as the outcomes we achieve. In a profession built on advocacy, civility is more than just good manners—it is a powerful tool for persuasion, credibility, and trust.
This engaging CLE program highlights:
- Why civility is essential to effective advocacy, client confidence, and the reputation of the profession.
- Practical ways to maintain professionalism even in high-conflict situations.
- The unique role of civility in mediation, where respect and constructive communication can make the difference between impasse and resolution.
- How leading with civility not only elevates your practice but strengthens the integrity of the justice system.
With real-world examples and actionable strategies, participants will walk away with a renewed understanding of civility as a core strength—not a soft skill—that supports better results for clients and fosters respect in every legal setting.
