LEGAL SERVICES

Minnesota’s top lawyers consult with Chuck Lundberg about issues they confront in their daily practice. Sometimes it’s just a matter of a telephone conference to confirm the correct handling of a problem. Sometimes it takes some arcane ethics research to analyze a particularly thorny issue of legal ethics. And sometimes it’s a full-blown retention as an expert witness on the law of lawyering.

Every Minnesota lawyer must earn three ethics credits, every three years. Chuck Lundberg produces and presents CLE ethics programs for law firms to allow their lawyers to satisfy their CLE ethics requirements in an in-house or firm retreat setting. These programs can be tailored to address the specific types of conflicts or other problems that arise in each firm’s unique practice areas. When a roomful of partners and associates begin talking to each other in a rigorous way about serious ethical issues that come up in their daily practice, it almost always results in an invigorating and firm spirit building experience.
