Social Media – Discovery, Ethics, Evidence & Remedies
We’ll review the pervasive world of social media, providing counsel with focused information on its integral presence in the practice of law from an ethical, discovery, evidentiary, and practice perspective. Technological advancements have created many grey areas regarding reasonable expectations of privacy and have blurred the lines between public and private identities. Ethical considerations and requirements, as well as new case precedents and mistrial, are popping up daily due to the misuse and lack of understanding of the effect social media now has on the work environment and practice of law. Class participants will be armed with specific techniques and tools to identify and collect evidence from social media sources.
IN THIS WEBINAR WE WILL COVER:
- What is social-based media?
- Why is social-based media important to lawyers?
- How social media can cost you: public pitfalls and poor judgment
- What should you be considering ethically?
- Online research tools and resources
- Ways to consider and capture social media evidence
- Considerations when developing social media policies
- Jurors, social media, judges & mistrials
