On Demand - Ethics and the Indiscriminate Liar: “Oh What Tangled Webs We Weave…” aka "Ethics in the Low Country?"

Cautionary tales from the Alex Murdaugh saga --

*This program is eligible for Ethics CLE credit.*

This program will review the many crimes for which Alex Murdaugh has been charged and convicted, and the signs that should have alerted those around him that all was not right in the Low Country.

We will provide a critical review and assessment of the countless ethical violations uncovered as a result of the Alex Murdaugh criminal charges, and ways those crimes potentially could have been detected and/or prevented by his partners, opposing counsel, and the courts. This case presents a tragic tale and dire warning of all that can go wrong when an attorney fails to heed his or her ethical obligations and those around ignore warning signs, as told through the testimony and other evidence gleaned from the Alex Murdaugh saga.

Presenter John T. Lay is one of the receivers appointed to oversee Murdaugh’s assets to prevent further wasting and will provide insight into the financial aspects of the ethical violations.
