As part of the education seminars, Fioretti addressed the delegation on issues of ethical conduct and rules as well as how to apply them for a more ethical and principled system of justice. Disparti Law is proud to have one of our attorneys leading the conversation on ethical justice.
Michele Calantropo, head of Palermo Bar Association, spoke of the experience with a dinner toast, “in every court, in every station, we share the law’s true aspiration. Let justice be our true foundation.”
The cross cultural exchange forging bonds with legal communities around the world further strengthens the knowledge and capacity of our lawyers and judges here at home.
