Program Description
 
Sometimes we all need to look at things from a different perspective. This applies to both our personal and professional lives and how they blend into a successful and fulfilling legal career. Join Kevin Houchin for this exciting new Ethics program devoted to finding a more balanced perspective on the rules of professional responsibility and how we can put the rules into an easy system for finding more success in our practice and our lives. This intensive interactive workshop could be the best 3 hours you'll invest in yourself this year.
 
As a bonus, each attendee will receive a free copy of Houchin's new book from Morgan James Publishing: Fuel the Spark: 5 Guiding Values for Success in Law and Life.
