Update from IAOLE: New Site, New Membership

Posted on by

CALE members who have an interest in legal ethics and professionalism at the international or comparative level are recommended to check out the new website of the International Association of Legal Ethics, which is here.

As part of a technological transition, the IAOLE is asking its previous members and anyone else who wants to become a member to register as a member under the Membership tab of the website.

The IAOLE is the host organization of the International Legal Ethics Conference (ILEC), held every two years, which was at UCLA in 2022 and will be at the University of Amsterdam on July 17-19, 2024. We previously posted about the call for papers in October 2023. The deadline to propose a paper is February 7, 2024.

Ethics Forum 2024

Posted on by

Registration is now open for the 2024 Ethics Forum, which is presented as a partnership between the CBA, FLSC and CALE. It happens on Friday, March 22, 2024 at the CBA conference centre in Toronto. For more information, including a detailed agenda with topics and speakers, see this web page.

This year’s panel sessions are entitled “Competence and Diversity”, “Law and Generative AI” and “The Duty to Report – How Far Does This Ethical Obligation Extend?” There will also be a keynote presentation over lunch on “Neurotechnology and the Practice of Law: Legal Ethics Intersections”. 

The Ethics Forum has been a popular event in previous years and so early registration is encouraged.
