In your first week as the general counsel of a company, you just received information that you are now in a crisis. In this interactive session, members of the audience will play different roles within the company (members of the board, legal department, managers, etc.) to have a discussion, including: What type of crisis plan do you have, if any? What to do and how to formulate a plan of action? Who to call first, how to prioritize tasks, and where to prioritize resources? Who (internal and external players) to get involved and when to get them involved? What data is needed when a crisis hits? How to prepare for the media and when to reach out? How to communicate with customers, vendors and suppliers, regulatory agencies, and other parties?
Dealing effectively with a crisis requires organizational readiness for almost any eventuality. This program will promote preparedness, enhanced decision-making and institutional integrity. Using polling devices, attendees will navigate their way through a number of crisis scenarios, focusing on the role of in-house counsel. The session will highlight best practices in crisis management planning, assembling the crisis management team, stakeholder relations, fact-finding and internal investigations, preserving evidence, communication and litigation in multiple jurisdictions. The scenarios will also address the tensions that sometimes exist between “business” and “legal.” Panelists, including a crisis management expert, will offer their perspectives as we work through each scenario. You will receive access to sample crisis management protocol documents that you can then customize. The presentation will cover MRPC 1.13, 1.1, MRCP 3 and sub-rules for ethics credit.
