Area lawyers, members of the

JAN. 28, 2005 -- The Charleston
School of Law will host a spring lecture series that will provide
students and interested area lawyers with dynamic professional
information that will deepen their understanding of legal issues.
In February, for example,
U.S. District Judge Cameron Currie of the District of South Carolina
and Columbia lawyer Pamela Roberts will discuss the influence
of women in the legal profession. In March, senior U.S. District
Judges Sol Blatt Jr. and Matthew Perry will provide perspectives
gleaned from more than 100 years in the legal profession. Other
lectures will address malpractice, professionalism and legal responsibilities
in the corporate world.
While students are required
to attend as part of their legal studies, local attorneys are
welcome. Members of the public are also welcome if space permits.
