May 7: From Claim to Closure — Guiding Clients Through Settlement

Description:

Settlement is more than reaching a number—it requires strategic counseling, clear expectation management, and careful planning. This program examines how attorneys can prepare clients for settlement discussions, particularly in emotionally complex cases, and address what civil litigation can—and cannot—achieve. Presenters will also discuss pre-settlement planning and key considerations in structuring and finalizing agreements to support informed decision-making and long-term stability.

June 9: Feeling Crispy? Burnout Is an Ethics Problem You Can’t Ignore

Description:
Feeling Crispy? Burnout Is an Ethics Problem You Can’t Ignore is a live‑streamed CLE program examining how chronic stress affects attorney performance, ethical decision‑making, and long‑term professional functioning. The session explains how prolonged stress alters the brain—narrowing decision‑making, heightening threat detection, and making even simple tasks feel overwhelming.

Chronic stress changes the brain. Decision-making and critical thinking narrow while threat detection ramps up, and even simple tasks start to feel insurmountable. This session goes beyond burnout symptom management. Attendees leave with neuroscience-backed strategies to rewire the patterns keeping their nervous system in fight-or-flight, regulate faster, improve their mental health, and sustain high performance.
