Ethics for In-House Counsel: Understanding the Attorney-Client Privilege and Work Product Doctrine for In-House Legal Departments
Monday, June 12th • 3:00 PM – 5:45 PM ET
While critically important to the day-to-day operations of the legal department, many in-house lawyers do not truly understand how the attorney-client privilege works or how best to protect it. The same is true for the work product doctrine, another form of “privilege.”
Join us on Monday, June 12 at 12pm PT / 3pm ET for the next edition of our IHC Essentials Series, for a lively and interactive session with Sterling Miller, 3x General Counsel, 5x author, and publisher of the renowned “Ten Things You Need to Know as In-House Counsel” blog series. Sterling will share his perspective on the attorney-client privilege and work product doctrine in the context of the unique needs of in-house lawyers.
Discussion topics include:
Understanding the scope and limits of Attorney-Client Privilege;
What is the Work Product Doctrine and how does it work?
Best Practices for In-House Counsel to maintain and protect these privileges in various scenarios.
Who Should Attend
This program is designed for both experienced and new in-house counsel. All in-house counsel and their in-house colleagues can benefit from learning practical insights and key strategies for preserving and protecting attorney-client privilege and work product doctrine within their organizations.
