This CLE will cover the critical ethics issues involved in leaving government practice for the private sector. It will describe the applicable ethics rules, statutes, and regulations that govern applying for private sector jobs while serving in the government, as well as how to ethically transition from the public to private sector. The CLE will cover the key Rules of Professional Conduct implicated in “revolving door” transitions including Rule 1.7 (current client conflicts), Rule 1.9 (former client conflicts), Rule 1.6 (confidentiality), and Rule 1.11 (successive government and private employment). It will also describe the relevant portions of 18 U.S.C. 207 (Post-Employment Restrictions), 18 U.S.C. 208 (Personal Financial Interests), and 5 CFR Part 2635, Subpart F (Negotiating for Employment).
