Overview (Program Summary)

A program hosted by:

ACC Northeast

Heavily relied upon yet often misunderstood, attorney-client privilege is an essential component of any attorney-client relationship.  The privilege is even more complicated in an in-house setting where in-house counsel often wear multiple hats, communicate with a variety of stakeholders, and must make quick decisions.

Please join us for this NextGen Starter Brief as we explore attorney-client privilege.  Preti Flaherty Partner, Ben Piper, will identify some of the key issues and pitfalls concerning the attorney-client privilege in an in-house setting.  Issues covered will include:

  • business versus legal advice;
  • with whom and under what circumstances privileged information may be shared without waiver;
  • privilege between parents, subsidiaries, and other affiliates; and,
  • key distinctions between the attorney-client privilege and the work-product doctrine.

This session will help you brush up on seminal authority and flag issues to help you think more critically about your attorney-client privilege practices.

Register below.  Dial-in credentials will be provided to registrants 24 hours prior to the webinar.
