Character and Fitness - Part 2 of 2

ABA Legal Career Insights Podcast

ABA Legal Career Central's Career Insights podcast is designed to explore cutting-edge issues, trends and practices impacting the legal profession and lawyers entering and growing in the profession. Each podcast is led by an experienced interviewer who will introduce a subject that is current and will involve leading experts, academicians, and practitioners reacting to the interviewer’s questions. In the second part of this program, our experts continue the conversation on how attorney character and fitness can be regulated, how the spotlight on lawyer misconduct has increased in the media (eg, a 60 Minutes story called “Against all odds” and several NYT articles in recent years, and how we see character and fitness evolving in the future given shifts in cultural and social norms.
