About This Course
Immigration attorneys face extraordinary pressure to advocate fiercely for their clients—but ethical obligations don’t disappear under pressure. This CLE course examines the ethical dimensions of immigration practice, helping lawyers stay compliant while still fighting effectively for their clients.
From understanding signature obligations to avoiding frivolous filings, attendees will walk away with tools to navigate real-world challenges. We’ll explore how state and federal rules intersect, what it means to ethically counsel clients without crossing into unlawful advice, and how to handle ineffective assistance claims under Matter of Lozada.
If you’ve ever wondered where the boundary lies between strong advocacy and ethical misconduct, this session is for you.
