Understanding financial statements and their relevance to various types of business and legal work is becoming increasingly important in the aftermath of numerous accounting scandals. Attorneys can no longer rely on the opinions of finance and accounting professionals and therefore must have a basic understanding of accounting. Additionally, attorneys face new liabilities in accounting matters since the passage of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. This On-Demand Continuing Legal Education (CLE/MCLE) course is designed to give attorneys a complete overview of accounting techniques, their relevance, and problems associated with each.
