Lawyers should think twice before appearing on reality TV
By Michael Byrnes|08 April 2021
While it might seem like a good, fun and maybe even enriching experience to go on the reality TV show journey, legal employees need to seriously consider their professional standing and employment before agreeing to be a contestant on such a show, writes Michael Byrnes.
Reputation and professional standing are very important to lawyers. Legal professionals contemplating being a contestant on a reality TV show might want to think twice before signing on. While an appearance on a reality TV show is almost always going to be in a private rather than professional capacity, it can nevertheless potentially have consequences for the employment of contestants whose behaviour on the program attracts a negative public reaction.
