The Ethics of Email and Social Media (LI)

Email and social media have generated some unique and quickly evolving issues that involve the use of electronic communications, documents and social media. What is the effect of e-mail and social media communications on creating or ending attorney client relationships and protecting client confidentiality? What are some of the risks with using these communications with adversaries? Consider the impact of social media on discovery; on juries' and judges' use of these technologies; on lawyer marketing. Join this Webinar to discover some of the ethical pitfalls to avoid.


Learning Objectives:

  • Identify the most important ethical issues that arise from the overwhelming use of email and social media - while complying with the ethics duty of confidentiality and protecting clients' attorney client privilege protection
  • Discuss ways to train staff and attorneys on ways to use email and social media and still maintain the ethical duties maintaining client relationships and confidentiality
Thomas E. Spahn, J.D., a partner in McGuireWoods, regularly advises his firm and a number of Fortune 500 companies on issues involving ethics, the attorney-client privilege and work product doctrine, corporate investigations and dealing with the government. Spahn has served on the ABA Standing Committee on Ethics and Professional Responsibility, and has spoken at more than 700 CLE programs.
