Our panelists, highly experienced trial and litigation specialists will discuss the impact of new ABA Formal Opinion 508, adopted August 5, 2023, dealing with “The Ethics of Witness Preparation.”
They will discuss the impact of the opinion on counsel’s approach to working with witnesses, including a client, to testify at deposition and trial. How does the opinion change the ethics rules?
