The EPCNNJ is proud to present Sean Carter, Esq, Humorist at Law, for a special two-part CLE event!
Program #1 will be a “bonus” one-hour program before our cocktail party, during which Mr. Carter will entertain us while teaching us about Diversity, Inclusion and Elimination of Bias in the legal field. This program has been submitted for approval to satisfy the new New York CLE requirement in this area, so New York attorneys – be sure to join us for this program. *Ethics CLE and other professional credits will be available for our New Jersey attorneys and other professionals, and all are welcome to join.
Program #2 will be our main event: The 2018 Ethy Awards!
Each year, Hollywood celebrates the best performances in motion pictures at the Oscars. This year, we will celebrate the worst ethics violations in the legal profession at the Ethys. Mr. Carter will announce this year's winners of the coveted Ethy Awards for Best Original Excuse, Least Competent in a Legal Representation, Worst Love Scene, and so much more. In the process of recapping some of the most egregious instances of unethical behavior, Mr. Carter demonstrates how the rest of us can avoid these and more common ethical violations in our own practices.
Mr. Carter is a Harvard Law grad who spent a decade practicing securities law before leaving the practice of law to pursue a career as the country's foremost Humorist at Law. Since then, Mr. Carter has crisscrossed the country delivering comedic professional educational seminars for more than 350 legal organizations in three dozen states. His presentation topics run the gamut from legal ethics, to stress management, to diversity. Yet, all of his presentations have one thing in common - humor and plenty of it. In fact, in 2003, Mr. Carter was dubbled "America's Funniest Lawyer" by The Radio and Television Interview Report. Sean lives in Mesa, Arizona with his wife and four sons.
