Summary
Implicit bias is a bias we hold of which we are unaware. Without our realizing it, an implicit bias affects the way we see others and interact with them. This program will discuss how lawyers deal with clients of different backgrounds. It will address how to identify, manage, and help mitigate personal implicit biases in order to minimize their influence on the representation of your clients. This eye-opening discussion, led by Edward Palmer, Certified Diversity Trainer, and experienced trial lawyer Phil Grossman, will also help you establish goals for your clients and provide ideas for addressing implicit bias when representing them at mediation and in court.
