Purpose
As amended through October 8, 2024
To maintain public confidence in the legal profession and the rule of law, and to promote the fair administration of justice, it is essential that attorneys be competent regarding the law, legal and practice-oriented skills, the standards and ethical obligations of the legal profession, and the management of their practices. In furtherance of this purpose, these rules establish minimum requirements for continuing legal education in the state of Vermont.
