ethics: rules every lawyer must know

Topics will include: safekeeping of client’s property (trust accounts), duty to report professional misconduct of other attorneys (In re Himmel), dealing with unrepresented persons, confidentiality of information, meritorious claim or contentions, communication with person represented by counsel, firm names and letterhead, attorneys fees, client-lawyer sexual relationships, and ex parte communications with judges.

isba women and the law committee
​community service project

A local MCBA member, Laura Castagna is a member of ISBA's Women and the Law Committee. That committee is sponsoring a community service project from now until December 9. They are collecting donations for women and children in crisis. (See flyer below). Locally, all donations will benefit the Neville House, which is a domestic violence shelter. Residents staying at Neville House work closely with trained domestic violence advocates that assist in finding resources for housing, childcare, employment, legal representation, transportation, and enhancement of life skills. If MCBA members would like to donate, we are collecting items including diapers, pull ups, baby wipes, high efficiency laundry detergent, box fans, bed side lamps, Lysol disinfectant spray, body wash, lotion, blankets, hangers, etc. Donations can be dropped off at our office, 121 N. Main St., 3rd Fl.
Bloomington. 

Thank you for considering this worthy cause!
