Practicing law can be inherently adversarial. Attorneys are confronted with uncivil behavior from opposing counsel, clients, colleagues, and even judges. The question is, how should they respond?

This one-hour CLE features a panel discussion on these topics from the Commission’s 2023 Future Is Now: Legal Services conference. The panelists include American Bar Association President (2022-23) Deborah Enix-Ross, Illinois Appellate Court Justice Sharon O. Johnson, and attorney Nathan Hinch of Meyer Capel.
