The COVID-19 pandemic forced companies to take creative steps to maintain business as usual, which may present new challenges in preserving confidential and privileged information.

Looking to launch a pro bono program or gain tips for improving your existing program?
Learn best practices for creating new programs and collaborating with other in-house, law firm, government, and legal services lawyers to build community and serve pro bono clients. There is more to it than advertising pro bono opportunities.
Join the Association of Corporate Counsel National Capital Region and the Washington Council of Lawyers for this program to hear from panelists with experience leading programs in their in-house legal departments. Presenters will provide practical advice on the decisions to be made and steps to take to build a strong foundation that will both encourage and support volunteers using their legal skills to help those unable to afford legal services.
The presentation will take place 12 - 1 pm ET and be followed by an online pro bono fair 1 - 2 pm ET, during which attendees will be able to select up to four break-out sessions featuring legal services organizations and in-house volunteers discussing volunteer opportunities. Registrants may attend either or both the program and fair.
Please join us for a full-day conference that will address the key issues a new general counsel or small law department lawyer will face in their role. Learn to uncover and tackle challenges within a variety of subject areas so you can be successful within your department and your company.
The In-House Primer will give in-house counsel an opportunity to attend six CLE sessions and hear from subject matter experts regarding employment issues, IP pitfalls, insurance and risk management, basic mergers & acquisition principles, and antitrust basics. Learn what you need to know and when to call outside assistance.
In addition, at the end of the day we will host a Networking and Q&A session on Zoom. You will be able to meet the panelists, ask any unanswered questions and network with colleagues.
