Compliance in Asia: It is harder than you think. Each country in Asia has its own compliance issues and in-house counsel must be alert to them. You must know how to spot the main red flags and to determine what is coming next.

This session was a straight talking, direct and open assessment of what goes on and what to look out for.

Allegations are being made from unauthorized practice of law to conflicts of interest. From where do these accusations arise and how are they resolved? How should a lawyer respond when confronted with an allegation of impropriety originating from an adversary, the judiciary, legislatively, or from a committee within a bar association? What steps can you take to quickly bring to the decision maker’s attention the plethora of ethics and ABA opinions, treatises and authoritative decisions that support, justify, or authorize the actions challenged?

Don’t miss this session if your responsibilities involve the review and creation of NDAs, or sales, vendor, license or other types of contracts.

Technology is now available to help companies automate and improve the entire contract creation and management life cycle, and doing so can bring tremendous value to your organization.
