ARE YOU A HEALTHY LAWYER?
ZOOM WEBINAR
(ONE HOUR CLE-ETHICS CREDIT)

We are all continuing to adjust to the COVID-19 environment.  The issues that have arisen in this environment beg the question of “Are You A Healthy Lawyer.”  We will explore this topic in our next Zoom Meeting on Friday, May 22, 2020 at 12 pm (AZ/PST).  We will be offering this discussion as a 1 Hour CLE (with Ethics Credit).

The discussion will be led by Brent Amato of the Christian Legal Society.  Brent is the CLS Chicagoland Coordinator and the former CLS National President. Brent has prepared this insightful discussion to help each of us answer the question of “Are You A Healthy Lawyer.”

Brent practiced transactional law in the Chicago area for forty years, specializing in corporate business and non-profit work. That practice was split about equally between private practice as a partner at two law firms and in-house corporate practice for two publicly-traded companies, first as an Associate Counsel and then as General Counsel.  As of December 31, 2014, he retired from the practice of law.  Brent has sought to integrate his Christian faith and his law practice through (i) the Christian Legal Society (as former Board member and President and now Staff member, working with lawyers and law students); (ii) Peacemaker Ministries and Crossroads Resolution Group (as a Certified Christian Conciliator for conflict resolution, mentor and teacher); (iii) Administer Justice and Gospel Justice Initiative (whose missions are to meet the legal and spiritual needs of the poor) and (iv) Judson University (as a Business Law Adjunct Professor).  Over these years, Brent has been a speaker and teacher at national, regional and local law-related conferences. Brent is married to Sherrie (his “better seven-eights”) and has been blessed with two children and six grandchildren. Contact Brent at amatos1@comcast.net

May Qualify for 1 Hour of Ethics CLE

**Please email David Williams at dwilliams@davisiles.com for CLE Certificates and Discussion materials.  Please send an RSVP email to David and you will be sent the materials in advance of the Zoom Webinar.**
