Conflicts of interest rarely arise from obvious misconduct they often develop through longstanding client relationships, multiple representations, referral networks or the inadvertent use of confidential information.  

Whether practising in a large firm or a close-knit regional community where "everyone knows everyone", lawyers must continually balance their duties of confidentiality and independence while maintaining public confidence in the profession. 


This seminar will focus on:  


  • Distinguishing between conflicts of duty and conflicts of interest. 
  • Managing confidential information and duties owed to current and former clients. 
  • Ethical challenges arising from acting for related parties, connected clients and multidisciplinary practices. 
  • Navigating referral relationships, client loyalty expectations and reputational risks. 
  • Recent court and disciplinary decisions on conflicts of interest.
