Answer:

Postconventional morality.

Step-by-step explanation:

As the exercise describes, to follow our conscience instead of the law in a conflict, despite the personal risk, is a characteristic of having a postconventional morality. This concept states that principles are separable from the authorities or persons who hold them, therefore, they are open for debate. This type of morality values moral behavior and action. So, it doesen't matter if it's the law, Liz will follow her conscience, her own morality, over it.
