Whether you are negotiating a real estate deal, settling a criminal or civil litigation matter, working though pre-trial discovery, or an administrative traffic or school board matter, there are certain “stretches” of the truth that are allowed and others that will get you in ethical professional trouble, resulting in possible malpractice liability, court sanctions, attorney discipline, or all three. This presentation will use hypotheticals, interactive discussions to help sort out just where the line is and how to avoid crossing over when negotiating not under oath. We will deal with the historic attorney concepts of puffing, objectivity, and truth and how they have changed in the 21st century.
