Description:

 

 Attorneys handling e-discovery have ethical duties to do so competently, and to protect their client’s confidentiality. This webinar will address how to meet those duties competently and cost-effectively.
Formal Opinion No. 2015-193 of the Standing Committee On Professional Responsibility and Conduct of the California State Bar (“Committee Opinion”) opines that an attorney may violate ethical duties of competence by failing to understand and perform e-discovery skills. The Committee Opinion set out a list of nine e-discovery tasks that “attorneys handling e-discovery should be able to perform (either by themselves or in association with competent counsel or expert consultants).”
