In-Firm CLE
Malpractice
Seminars
In addition to helping law firm clients place competitive malpractice insurance, we provide in-firm, "interactive" malpractice avoidance seminars. Using CLE Ethics credits, we incentivize busy lawyers to sit down together to discuss this important topic. Through the use of multiple choice questions, group discussion case-studies and self-assessment exercises, this approach helps the information STICK!

What Firms Say...
Seminars May Earn
"Risk Management" Credits on Insurance Policy
“I want to take this opportunity to thank you for the Malpractice CLE seminar which you presented to us. I have spoken to most of the members of my firm who participated, and they have all indicated that the seminar was beneficial and thought provoking, in addition to the two hours of ethics CLE credit. As we have discussed on several occasions, it is absolutely necessary for attorneys to be more vigilant in the prevention of malpractice claims especially in light of the growing attitude in our society for trying to place blame. DPIC, and of course your organization, are to be complemented for the emphasis that is placed on loss prevention.
I also want to say that the format used this year, which involved the input and participation of all in attendance, made the experience more enjoyable and beneficial. As you may know, the typical CLE courses we attend are lectures and very often nothing is gained from the session itself other than meeting CLE requirements. Please feel free to use this letter, if you wish, in your Contacts with perspective clients."
