Model Rules provisions on the unauthorized practice of law have developed in response to social change but the language suggested is rarely followed in its exact form. The disparity between the Model Rules and what states actually require can cause significant confusion leading to the unintentional unauthorized practice of law. This presentation highlights some of those differences to help attorneys avoid jurisdictional traps and gotchas. 11:50 a.m. to 12:50 p.m. (1.00 hr | 1.00 hr ethics) Technology and Ethics: Adapting to the post-COVID Practice of Law (REPLAY) Jessica Vittorio, The Law Office of Jessica Vittorio PLLC, Frisco, TX Explore the incorporation of technology into the practice of law in response to the COVID-19 crisis, and moving forward.
