A competent litigator will solve problems, investigate facts, research law, negotiate effectively, and win when it’s important. Does that litigator have the skills to navigate the ethics minefield of electronic discovery?
In every aspect of relationships with client, Court and opposing counsel, eDiscovery triggers ethical obligations. How do best practices in eDiscovery make it easy to exercise the requisite diligence and professional responsibility?
Panelists discuss attorneys’ ethical obligation to understand their client’s use of technology, as it relates to investigation, preservation, and analysis of data during discovery.

Watch this webinar to explore the ethics considerations of the following:

  • Competence to identify and filter the right information
  • Negotiating a proportionate scope of discovery
  • Supervision of lawyers, vendors, and staff
  • Using technology to manage costs
  • Balancing fairness with “zealous advocacy”

Workforce demographics are changing -- and our existing California and federal laws are being interpreted in new ways to apply to the new workplace profile. In this webinar, we will examine a number of protected classifications and other areas, with a spotlight on how the modern workplace is forcing employers, agencies and courts to reexamine our traditional views. Topics we will cover in depth include unconscious bias, race and color, religious accommodation, and gender issues. We’ll also offer best practices on addressing intentional or implicit workplace bias.
