Do NOT make Idle Threats During Mediation

From retention through trial, criminal defense attorneys daily face a host of ethical and quasi-ethical questions. In multi-defendant cases, who can be a party to a joint defense agreement? What are the protections (and limitations) afforded by joint defense agreements? How can a defense attorney be an effective advocate without being accused of obstructing the government’s investigation? What are a defense attorney’s discovery obligations? Can a defense attorney call a witness to the stand who the attorney believes will lie? How does a defense attorney prepare a witness for testimony?

This course, co-presented by defense attorneys Lee Vartan and Danielle Corcione of Chiesa Shahinian & Giantomasi PC, will consider these questions, and others, in light of the American Bar Association Model Rules of Professional Conduct and recent case law.
