The Color of Hope is about painting your future and that of your clients with any color that you believe is the essence of hope. Mine is blue. You are free to choose whatever color you want so long as when you look at it, you see hope.

There are many chairs in the courtroom, but for me, there are three. One for the prosecutor, another for the defense counsel, and then the one you do not want to sit in, the one for the defendant. But there are lessons to be learned from all three.

The Color of Hope

Resilience is coming back, starting over, finding a second chance. Wellbeing is a state of both physical and mental health. It is difficult to have one without the other.  The Color of Hope is about deciding or painting your future and that with your clients with any color that you believe is the essence of hope.  Totally new!

This program contains two hours of Ethics and Professionalism followed by one hour of Wellbeing which is the wording the State Bar now uses rather than mental health or substance abuse. So, with this three-hour course, an attorney or paralegal can satisfy the ethics and wellness that the Bar requires.

Duration/Credit(s): Ethics and Professionalism - 2 Hours. Wellbeing - 1 Hour
Schedule: 8:45 AM - 12:00 PM

Three Chairs in the Courtroom

In a criminal law courtroom, there are three main chairs. There is one for the prosecutor, one for the defense counsel and then the last one for the defendant. I have sat in all three.

I liked the prosecutor chair the most and the defendant chair the least. But I learned a lot in each of the three chairs.

This program is about stories from those times and the lessons I learned. It is new, and it is candid. Cases studied are the Jeffrey MacDonald murder trial, the environmental trial involving the illegal disposal of PCB by the owner of Ward Transformer Company, the trial of the then sitting Lt. Governor Jimmy Green, and then my own case from 1993.

Duration/Credit(s): Ethics and Professionalism - 3 Hours
Schedule: 12:45 AM - 4:00 PM
