Event Outline

A guilty plea is more than a procedural step—it carries serious consequences for the client’s future. How can defence counsel ensure the plea is made knowingly, voluntarily, and with full understanding? This seminar will equip criminal defence lawyers with the tools to navigate the legal and ethical landscape of guilty pleas. Learn when and how to advise clients, what they must understand before pleading, and how to support them even after sentencing.
