On November 13, 2018 Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law‘s Jacob Burns Center for Ethics in the Practice of Law will host #MeToo & the Legal Profession. From the organizers: The conference will focus on two issues: First–what are the range of options available to lawyers who are asked to lend their professional skill and expertise to clients who have, or are likely to be accused of misusing positions of authority and power or tolerating such conduct in the workplace? Second–assuming that law firms are also sites of harassment,. are there any special steps that lawyers can take to protect vulnerable members of the legal community (especially women)?
