History

TRTCLE is a family-run organization dedicated to providing high quality continuing legal education. Founded by Dr. William Brown, a clinical psychologist and one of the nation's leading lecturers on ethics and professionalism, TRTCLE has been creating engaging and forward thinking content for the past 33 years.

In 1991, Brown published The Right Thing, a book examining the ethical realities behind making the choice between right and wrong. Heavily influenced by the moral code prescribed in the book, Dr. Brown and his wife, Nett, founded The Right Thing (TRT) CLE.

TRTCLE has grown to be one of the leaders in online continuing legal education. While initially created with a focus on ethics courses, TRTCLE has expanded its scope to include a multitude of course subjects across 40 states. Our growing faculty, now over 40 lecturers from every facet of law practice, includes judges, medical specialists, and active legal professionals.
