Extract from “ABA Offering Free Legal Ed Classes to Lawyers Hit by Shutdown”
The American Bar Association is offering free continuing legal education classes to all lawyers affected by the partial federal government shutdown—including those who aren’t ABA members, the group said today.
The CLE classes, also open to non-lawyer government workers, include programs on legal ethics, disaster response, and healthcare data breaches.
“This is a way to help lawyers during this difficult time who do so much for the country,” ABA Executive Director Jack Rives said in a press release.
