Welcome and Introduction

Legal Ethics and Tales from the Privilege Crypt

In-house and outside corporate counsel face privilege and ethical confidentiality challenges on a daily basis. Whether the privilege protects a particular communication from discovery, however, is not determined until litigation erupts years after its creation. Many scary privilege tales have arisen in litigation where corporate counsel lost privilege protection despite their valiant efforts. In this interactive presentation, the speakers will first discuss how to establish and maintain the attorney-client privilege in a corporate environment. The presenters will next examine in a workshop setting recent “tales from the privilege crypt” that illustrate how corporate counsel established—or failed to establish—the privilege. Attendees should arrive ready to consult the workshop materials and will leave the session with a better understanding of what to do—and importantly what not to do—to establish and protect privileged communications.
