This two-hour ethics CLE will “unmask” the ethics issues underlying or relating to client identity issues. The great bulk of lawyer obligations under the professional rules spring from the attorney-client relationship. This CLE will focus on scenarios in which:

(i) A lawyer must know more about a client to avoid assisting in a crime or a fraud (considering ABA Opinion 491’s discussion of a lawyer’s obligation to inquire generally and as compared to some “know your client” and banned client requirements of anti-terrorist and anti-money laundering laws);

(ii) A client might like to remain anonymous or at least “under the radar” of publicity (considering the requirements of ABA Rules 1.1, 1.4, 1.2, 3.9, 4.1, 4.3, and 6.4 generally and as compared to Foreign Agent Registration Act (FARA) and the Lobbying Disclosure Act); and

(iii) Client identity is not a simple question (corporate affiliates; people vs. entities; managers or fiduciaries; payors; unintended clients; evolving and changing clients).

Presented by Platinum Sponsor Hunton Andrews Kurth LLP Partner Kelly L. Faglioni and John M. Oakey, III (“Jay”), Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary of Essex Bank and its holding company, Community Bankers Trust Corporation in Richmond, Virginia.

We would like to invite you and your colleagues to honor the 20th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks by participating in our service effort at The Arc Jacksonville Village. For the 11th consecutive year, Holland & Knight is participating in the nationwide 9/11 National Day of Service and Remembrance, a service initiative created in part by Jay Winuk, brother of Glenn Winuk, a Holland & Knight partner and volunteer EMT who, on 9/11, exited the firm's New York Office and died while rescuing others during the collapse of the World Trade Center.

The Jacksonville office of Holland & Knight in partnership with our family and friends are giving back to the Jacksonville community as part of a nationwide campaign to honor those who lost their lives on September 11, 2001. Together we will assist The Arc Jacksonville Village with a number of painting, landscaping and maintenance projects. The Arc Jacksonville Village is an independent living community for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities

The Arc Jacksonville was founded in 1965 by a group of local parents and citizens who shared a common vision: a world where individuals with intellectual and developmental differences would enjoy full and independent lives brimming with opportunity, promise and purpose. Since then, it has impacted the lives of thousands of individuals and families, pioneering innovative approaches and serving as a catalyst for change. From its grassroots beginnings, the center has flourished into a respected community partner that serves more than 500 individuals a day – offering a full range of education, employment and advocacy services that empower individuals to achieve their full potential.

Date: Saturday, September 11, 2021
Time: 8:30 a.m. – 1:30 p.m. (picnic lunch included)
