Insurance Law & ADR Section Webinar – Mediation Ethics: Perspectives from Mediators, In-House and Outside Counsel
Don’t miss the Insurance Law & ADR Section co-hosted webinar “Mediation Ethics: Perspectives from Mediators, In-House and Outside Counsel” on August 4, 2026!
Earn up to 1.0 hour Ethics MCLE credit!
About the Webinar: Last year the ABA issued Formal Opinion 518, which has caused great debate among the ADR community while going unnoticed by lawyers and consumers of ADR. Do the same rules on honesty and misrepresentations apply to attorney-mediators and attorneys for parties? Are mediator’s proposals ethical? Our diverse panel will discuss some of the ethical issues raised by FO 518, how lawyers and mediators view mediation and what are their expectations for an ethical mediation. This is a great way to get an ethics credit and prepare for your next mediation.
