Overview
"CLE Performer” Stuart Teicher returns to PA to spill the tea on Ethics, Celebrities & Movie Lawyers
Stuart Teicher isn’t your average CLE speaker—he’s a “CLE Performer” who travels the country delivering high-energy, thought-provoking programs. Along the way, he’s bumped into more than a few celebrities…and snapped plenty of selfies to prove it.
In this unique and entertaining presentation, Stuart brings together two of his favorite things: celebrity encounters and the ethical missteps of movie lawyers. He’ll share behind-the-scenes stories and photos from his run-ins with famous faces—and then connect those experiences to real-world lessons in legal ethics.
Plus, he’ll break down scenes from popular films, exposing the ethical blunders made by fictional attorneys (and what real lawyers can learn from them). It’s ethics CLE with a Hollywood twist—part legal analysis, part pop culture, 100% memorable.
Hang out with Stuart and the stars as they examine:
- What Bill Murray teaches about a lawyer conducting oneself with courtesy and dignity
- What an Indecent Proposal teaches about zealous advocacy and Rule 8.4
- How Goodfellas teach us about a lawyer’s duty to report— Rule 8.3
- My Cousin Vinny and Candor to the Tribunal
- Lessons from Hollywood about bad behavior and professionalism
Recorded in November 2025.
