May I introduce you to a friend of mine? Her name is Jaimie B. Field, Esq. and she is an award winning Rainmaking Trainer & Coach (www.the-rain-maker.com) Jaimie has been a presenter for CELESQ on a number of occasions. And now, she and I are teaming up to bring live Ethics CLEs directly to your conference room to teach your attorneys one of the most important skills your law firm needs the ability to bring in new clients. She has 12 different business development AND ethics topics from which to choose. Each seminar is at least 120 minutes long with at least one ethics credit.

Facebook has 1.5 BILLION active monthly users. LinkedIn has 546 million registered users of which almost 1/3 are in the United States. YouTube boasts that they have 1 BILLION users and more than 400 hours of video are uploaded every minute! (Statistics provided by DMR) Then there is blogging, Pinterest, Instagram, SnapChat, TikTok; there are direct message apps like Slack, Disciple. New social sharing sites being created every day. Social media is a wonderful place to showcase your knowledge and to position yourself as the go-to-authority (social media marketing). You can connect with potential clients and referral sources (social media networking) to grow your practice as long as you know how to use it. And that is what this seminar will teach you. But more importantly, this seminar will talk about the ethics issues that accompany the use of social media by attorneys. In fact, there are a myriad of ethics rules that are tied to the use of these sites including: Rule 1.1: Competence Rule 1.8: Duties to Prospective Clients Rule 1.6: Confidentiality Rule 1.8: Conflicts of Interest Current Clients Rule 1.9: Duties to Former Clients Rule 5.5: Unauthorized Practice of Law Rule 7.1: Communication Concerning a Lawyers Services Rule 7.2: Communications Concerning A Lawyers Services (Specific Rules) Rule 7.3: Solicitation of Clients Rule 3.6 Trial Publicity Rule 8.4 Misconduct And we will spend a lot of time discussing these rules in the context of social media marketing and social media networking.
