It’s a Privilege to Speak with You – Every Day Application of the Attorney-Client Privilege in a Corporate Environment

The in-house counsel fulfills a unique role in the business and legal function of an organization.  While the attorney-client privilege might attach when counsel is wearing their “lawyer” hat, it might not easily apply when non-legal and business tasks are being pursued.  Then, while the copy button on an email might seem convenient and helpful to keep a broader team in the loop, it could also create detrimental impacts on the privilege.  This session will focus on every day and practical applications of privilege in the corporate environment, including a refresher on the privilege, how to maintain confidentiality, its waiver, and other important related topics paired with plenty of real life examples.
