22nd Annual Symposium on Legal Ethics & Professionalism (Virtual)

to

Fundamental ethical questions abound in lawyering for the President—Who is the client? How far is too far in terms of advocating a legal position? When, if ever, is it appropriate to follow directives from the President? What is the proper balance between privileged communications and the public’s right to know? This Symposium will examine how lawyers—public and private—dealt (or should have dealt) with these and other difficult questions in relation to various administrations.
