Fulfill your entire annual ethics requirement in Texas in one day! (1.00 hr ethics)Ethics Lessons from the Hit TV Show “Suits” The hit series "Suits" follows new associate Mike Ross in his adventures in big law working under partner Harvey Specter. In aggressively advocating for their clients, this duo uses tactics most attorneys wouldn't normally see in a merger or a hearing before a judge. In this presentation, Texas litigator Brent Turman tracks these fictional attorneys' cases as well as the power struggles within this firm of diverse and interesting characters, explaining whether their on-screen actions comply with specific ABA Model Rules of Professional Conduct (spoiler alert: most of the time they don't.). Through the lens of this captivating series, Turman provides an entertaining way for attorneys to obtain ethics credit. Brent A. Turman, Munsch Hardt Kopf & Harr, P.C. - Dallas, TX (1.00 hr ethics)Burnout is Real and so is BlissYou’ve heard of burnout, but this session goes deeper into the real data, the neuroscience behind overwhelm, and why burnout is especially pervasive in law and on the rise. We’ll define both burnout and bliss in clear, grounded terms—no fluff, just facts—while introducing a practical spectrum to help you recognize where you truly are. If you’ve ever rolled your eyes at the idea of “self-care” yet still feel the weight of your profession, this hour is your invitation to recalibrate—without losing your edge.

    Outstanding presentation-

    Especially the Suits course with highly entertaining and informative at the same time. As for the burn-out course: I understand this is the first part of a longer course: I would be interested to hear the rest of the course too.

    I thoroughly enjoyed the "Suits" presentation, as it was one of the most engaging ethics presentations I've seen to date. The AI presentation was also very well done, and I hope that the UT LAW CLEs continues to provide AI specific CLEs as the law continues to develop rapidly.
