Speaker, Gibbons P.C. Client CLE Day, "Tips for Preserving the Attorney-Client Privilege in Everyday, In-House Interactions"

During the course of any given day, in-house counsel may be asked to participate in a number of house counsel may be asked to participate in a number of conversations, decisions, or initiatives, all under the appearance of giving legal advice. But who qualifies as a client, whether the participation of counsel is really in a legal capacity or a business capacity, and other factors will ultimately determine whether the communication is, in fact, protected by the attorney-client privilege. The speakers will discuss the privilege, the pertinent questions to ask and factors to consider, and ways to maximize the chances to protect the privilege when engaging in communications involving third parties.
