Join the RI Women's Bar Association in partnership with Hinckley Allen for an In Person Ethics CLE featuring Maria Lenz from the RI Supreme Court Office of Disciplinary Counsel.

You Know It When You See It: Civility in Legal Practice. 

Civility is often considered the “cornerstone” of the legal profession, but let’s face it: we are all human, and sometimes, we find it hard to be civil, especially when faced with difficult clients or overly “zealous” opposing counsel. This Ethics CLE will discuss what civility is, the advantages of civility to your legal practice, and tips for how to exercise civility when faced with challenging relationships. The CLE will also examine the relationship of civility to the Rules of Professional Conduct and provide real-life examples of disciplinary consequences of being uncivil.  

 When: March 18, 2026 at 12:00PM

Where: Hinckley, Allen & Snyder, LLC (100 Westminster Street, Suite 1500)
