Electronic information is ubiquitous and its use and misuse can pose serious ethical problems for attorneys. Attorneys use electronic information to communicate with the public and with clients, to advertise their services, and to prosecute and defend litigation. Moreover, electronic information includes social media and that media creates expanded opportunities and risks for attorneys.
This program will benefit every attorney who uses or must deal with electronic information, whether to advertise, communicate or litigate. Whether you are in solo practice, with a small or “mega” firm, a corporation or a government agency, knowledge of the ethical implications of electronic communications – including social media – is essential to the successful practice of law today and tomorrow, especially given the “remote” practice of law today.
Expert presenters: Hon. Ron Hedges (ret.), Senior Counsel, Dentons
