The South Carolina Bar is administrating a South Carolina Lawyer Mentoring Pilot Program. Each person participating in the program will be required to have a mentor who has been an active member of the South Carolina Bar at least five years and is currently active or a retired member of the bar.
The pilot program intends to address specific areas such as:
• Issues of law practice management, including the handling of accounts; • The importance of developing a personal and professional support network as a lawyer; • An awareness of a lawyer's ethical responsibilities, including guidance for dealing with inappropriate behavior by others; • Guidance regarding professional education and public service responsibilities; • An understanding of the professional responsibility and behavior in different areas of law practice; • The importance of becoming involved in both professional and community activities outside your primary practice or employment; and • An understanding of the importance of regular and open communication with clients and others.
