Participants will examine how early factual investigation, coverage analysis, venue selection, and cost-versus-settlement decisions can influence litigation outcomes and manage risk. The course places particular emphasis on professional responsibility issues arising from the tripartite relationship among the insurer, insured, and defense counsel. Attendees will explore ethical obligations related to competence, diligence, candor, communication, good-faith settlement, and responsible motion practice, and how these duties apply in real-world insurance matters. Through case studies, the program highlights how early strategic and ethical missteps can result in significant exposure. The program also discusses emerging developments, including social inflation, evolving coverage disputes, and the increasing role of technology and AI. Participants will learn how legal research, analytics, and technology tools can be used to support informed, ethical decision-making during the early stages of an insurance case.<br /><br />After completing this course, you will be able to: <p></p><ul> <li>Identify and prioritize critical early case assessment tasks in insurance litigation in a manner consistent with ethical duties of competence and diligence.</li> <li>Analyze coverage issues at case intake, including the duty to defend and duty to indemnify, while recognizing ethical risks related to delay, waiver, and conflicts of interest.</li> <li>Apply professional responsibility rules governing competence, diligence, candor, communication, truthfulness, and good-faith settlement in insured matters and claims handling.</li> <li>Evaluate litigation costs, settlement opportunities, and excess exposure ethically, with proper consideration of the insured’s interests and the insurer’s duty of good faith.</li> <li>Integrate emerging legal developments, technology, and AI tools responsibly, ensuring their ethical use in early case assessment and decision-making.</li> </ul> <p></p></div> <div><b>Title:</b><br /> <a href="https://www.lexisnexis.com/university/course.aspx?classinfo=Crs~686~71177&amp;credit=1">From Intake to Insight: Early Case Assessment, Ethics, and Strategic</a> </div> <div><b>Webinar Date+Time:</b><br /> <p style="margin-top: 0px;">Thursday, November 5, 2026.<br /> 2:45–4 PM ET | 1:45–3 PM CT | 12:45–2 PM MT | 11:45 AM–1 PM PT.<br /> <a href="https://www.lexisnexis.com/university/course.aspx?classinfo=Crs~686~71177&amp;credit=1">Free Continuing Legal Education Webinar – Register Now!</a></p> </div> <div><p><b>Speakers:</b><br /> </p><ul> <li>Robin McManigal.</li> <li>Angela Chmielewski.</li> </ul> <p></p></div> <div><p><b>Credit:</b><br /> 1 credit hour (ethics) in Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Connecticut, Georgia, Hawaii, Illinois, Indiana, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Vermont and Virginia.

Domestic violence reaches every attorney — through a client, an employee, a family member, or a friend — so this program is built for general practitioners, not only family-law or criminal specialists.<br /><br /> The hour walks through five recent statutory and constitutional developments — plus one prominent bill Ohio has not passed — and what each requires attorneys to do differently: the felony reclassification of strangulation (R.C. 2903.18); repeat-offender sentencing and the pregnancy enhancement under House Bill 111; the 2025 electronic-tracking statute reaching AirTags and location apps (R.C. 2903.216); the gap between the permanent federal firearms ban on a misdemeanor conviction and Ohio's weapons-disability statute (18 U.S.C. 922 and R.C. 2923.13); the constitutional victim rights of Marsy's Law and their implementation through R.C. Chapter 2930; and Aisha’s Law — the lethality-screening bill passed twice by the House and never enacted — alongside what R.C. 2935.032 actually requires of police today.<br /><br /> Attendees also learn the attorney mandatory-reporter framework (R.C. 2151.421 and R.C. 5101.61) and how to read a protection order for enforceability — including the firearms-surrender and anti-electronic-monitoring language that must be requested explicitly or the protection fails. Each participant receives a statutory reference handbook keyed to the Ohio Revised Code.</p><p> <b>Title:</b><br /> <a href="https://events.ourfamilywizard.com/ohio-domestic-violence-law-webinar-registration">What Every Legal Professional Should Know About Domestic Violence Law in Ohio</a></p> <p><b>Date+Time:</b><br /> Wednesday, September 30, 2026<br /> 12:00 PM – 1:00 PM Eastern Time<br /> <i><a href="https://events.ourfamilywizard.com/ohio-domestic-violence-law-webinar-registration">Register Now for this Free Continuing Legal Education Webinar!</a></i> </p> <p><b>Speakers:</b><br /></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><b>Lavonne Urban</b>, LPC, MS Ed, NCC, is a clinical psychotherapist, former healthcare COO, and the founder of The Quickening, an empowerment program for women.
