The Relation of Lawyer and Client How is the relationship formed? (The answer may surprise you!) Can you have a client you didnt know you had? (Yes . . . . ) Can you take only part of a clients case? What about the client who only wants revenge? What if your client is incompetent? (Or, worse yet, borderline incompetent?) What if the client insists you pursue an issue which you are certain is a loser? II. The Duty of Confidentiality What does the duty of confidentiality cover? Is the attorney-client privilege different? What about the work product privilege? Just what is covered by each of these privileges and duties? (More important, how do clients tend to see these duties?) When two clients engage the same lawyer for the same matter, what happens to the privilege? III. The Duty of Loyalty Can you ever sue one current client on behalf of another current client? What duty do you owe a client not to take a case on behalf of another client? (Whos running the show in the attorney-client relationship?) How can you ethically refuse to take a case if no other lawyer in town will take it? Are you prevented from taking public positions contrary to the positions of your clients? May husband and wife lawyers represent different interests? (Should they?) IV. Conflicts Between Client Interests and the Lawyers Personal Interests Can lawyers take stock in an enterprise instead of a cash fee? (If they do, what problems can they anticipate?) Can a lawyer invest in a company that competes with a client? What can (and cannot) a lawyer do with valuable confidential information learned while representing a client? V. The Lawyer and the Former Client Can a lawyer ever sue a former client? What if client confidences will not be disclosed? How does the substantial relationship test work? Can lawyers be disqualified because of preliminary interviews with people who choose not to hire the lawyer? If a lawyer is disqualified, what happens to the work product? Can it be turned over to the new lawyer? 3.4 WVMCLE credits, including 3.4 ethics credits Compact Disc Seminar Sale with Written Handouthttp://wvcle.org/items/compact-disc-seminars/ethics-with-professor-forest-bowman-2004-compact-disc-seminar-sale-r80-0422-1290-0998-detail.htmhttp://wvcle.org/browse_item_details.asp/Item_Id/2077946/categ_id/13690Webcast SeminarsFri, 13 Feb 2009 07:43:00 PST General Business Practice in Bad Faith Litigation -Whatever Happened to the Plain Meaning of Words? -Is the Statistical Defense a Valid Tool to Rebut General Business Practice -Impact of Campbell V.

One by one, states have been adopting variants of the new federal rules, or simply following their wisdom in court cases. Most attorneys have been schooled, at least marginally, in the rules themselves. But what have the new rules meant in practice? Courts have now had time to address electronic evidence and some interesting (and sometimes conflicting) decisions have been issued. What are the new requirements for a meet and confer? What is inaccessible? Whats the difference between evidence that must be preserved and that which must be produced? What electronic evidence protocols do the courts find acceptable? When might you (or your client) be subject to sanctions? Come learn the lessons of the leading electronic discovery cases and bring your questions! SHARON D. NELSON, PRESIDENT JOHN W. SIMEK, VICE PRESIDENT Sensei Enterprises, Fairfax, Virginia Records Management in Todays Electronic Workplace Records management, from creation to final disposition, is a greater challenge today than ever before, driven by factors like the explosive growth in electronic data, new regulatory requirements, and the new federal e-discovery rules. Businesses and entities of all sizes must now address records management, or face dire consequences like overwhelming discovery expense or a default judgment. This session will explore current legal requirements for records management and ways of addressing them. DAVID G. RIES, ESQUIRE Stuart C.

Some have been charged with making false certifications to the court, and one recent high profile case reached the point where counsel had to defend themselves in a sanctions hearing after trial. Getting hung up in the briar patch of e-discovery violations is the last place a lawyer wants to find him or herself. This session will explore the ethical implications involved in dealing with ESI and the right strategies to keep you OUT of the briar patch. DAVID G.

One by one, states have been adopting variants of the new federal rules, or simply following their wisdom in court cases. Most attorneys have been schooled, at least marginally, in the rules themselves. But what have the new rules meant in practice? Courts have now had time to address electronic evidence and some interesting (and sometimes conflicting) decisions have been issued. What are the new requirements for a meet and confer? What is inaccessible? Whats the difference between evidence that must be preserved and that which must be produced? What electronic evidence protocols do the courts find acceptable? When might you (or your client) be subject to sanctions? Come learn the lessons of the leading electronic discovery cases and bring your questions! SHARON D. NELSON, PRESIDENT JOHN W. SIMEK, VICE PRESIDENT Sensei Enterprises, Fairfax, Virginia Records Management in Todays Electronic Workplace Records management, from creation to final disposition, is a greater challenge today than ever before, driven by factors like the explosive growth in electronic data, new regulatory requirements, and the new federal e-discovery rules. Businesses and entities of all sizes must now address records management, or face dire consequences like overwhelming discovery expense or a default judgment. This session will explore current legal requirements for records management and ways of addressing them. DAVID G. RIES, ESQUIRE Stuart C.

The Men in Black Speak: Leading Electronic Discovery Cases After the New Rules On December 1, 2006, a mighty train pulled out of the station and the rules for dealing with electronic evidence in the federal courts changed significantly. One by one, states have been adopting variants of the new federal rules, or simply following their wisdom in court cases. Most attorneys have been schooled, at least marginally, in the rules themselves. But what have the new rules meant in practice? Courts have now had time to address electronic evidence and some interesting (and sometimes conflicting) decisions have been issued. What are the new requirements for a meet and confer? What is inaccessible? Whats the difference between evidence that must be preserved and that which must be produced? What electronic evidence protocols do the courts find acceptable? When might you (or your client) be subject to sanctions? Come learn the lessons of the leading electronic discovery cases and bring your questions! SHARON D. NELSON, PRESIDENT JOHN W. SIMEK, VICE PRESIDENT Sensei Enterprises, Fairfax, Virginia Records Management in Todays Electronic Workplace Records management, from creation to final disposition, is a greater challenge today than ever before, driven by factors like the explosive growth in electronic data, new regulatory requirements, and the new federal e-discovery rules. Businesses and entities of all sizes must now address records management, or face dire consequences like overwhelming discovery expense or a default judgment. This session will explore current legal requirements for records management and ways of addressing them. DAVID G. RIES, ESQUIRE Stuart C. Gaul, Jr., Esquire Thorp Reed and Armstrong, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania Electronic Evidence, The U.S. Attorney, and Your Client: What Every Lawyer Needs to Know CHARLES T. MILLER, UNITED STATES ATTORNEY U.S. Attorney Office, Southern District of West Virginia Admissibility of Digital Evidence: Reaping the Fruits of Your Labor Ray Shepard, Partner/Corporate Counsel Second Creek Technologies, LLC, Barboursville, West Virginia Smoke and Mirrors: The Fabrication and Alteration of Electronic Evidence How would you know if a photo has been digitally altered? Or a voice recording? How about metadata? Would you know if a spreadsheet, PowerPoint or Word document had been altered? How can you discern whether an e-mail address is spoofed? Even the venerable Reuters news service has been fooled by doctored photos. The average 13 year old can accomplish electronic magic that is undetectable to anyone but an expert. Our own experts will show you whats possible and how to spot the indicators that e-evidence may not be what it seems. SHARON D. NELSON, PRESIDENT JOHN W. SIMEK, VICE PRESIDENT Sensei Enterprises, Fairfax, Virginia Effective Use of Electronic Evidence for Juries THE HONORABLE JOHN PRESTON BAILEY Chief Judge, U.S. Northern District Court THE HONORABLE IRENE M. KEELEY Judge, U.S. Northern District Court SHAWN A. MORGAN, ASSISTANT U.S. ATTORNEY ANDREW R. COGAR, ASSISTANT U.S. ATTORNEY U.S. Attorneys Office, Northern District of West Virginia Forensically Sound Evidence Collection Ray Shepard, Partner/Corporate Counsel Second Creek Technologies, LLC, Barboursville, West Virginia Ethics in E-Discovery: Staying Out of the Briar Patch Stories in the press about attorneys being sanctioned for ignorance or even reckless disregard in the handling of electronically stored information (ESI) are becoming more common. Some have been charged with making false certifications to the court, and one recent high profile case reached the point where counsel had to defend themselves in a sanctions hearing after trial. Getting hung up in the briar patch of e-discovery violations is the last place a lawyer wants to find him or herself. This session will explore the ethical implications involved in dealing with ESI and the right strategies to keep you OUT of the briar patch. DAVID G.

How Good Lawyers Survive Bad Times: The View From 10,000 Feet* Law firms are shrinking and toppling day by day. The legal world has been badly rocked by the recession and the end is not yet in sight. The worst thing a law firm can do is remain passive and wait for the economy to recover. Our experts will share with you some of the shocking statistics as well as some advice for not only surviving but thriving in this rocky economy. Sharon Nelson, President John Simek, Vice President Sensei Enterprises, Fairfax, VA The $6,000 Law Office: Champagne Technology on a Beer Budget* Specific recommendations and thorough descriptions of all the hardware and software technology you need to outfit a first class law office, all within a $6,000 budget. From computers and printers suitable for lawyers to case management software; from billing and accounting software to smartphones, search and faxing software; from backup systems to word processor/office suite; and most important-training. Also included: finding the best deals on law office technology. Barron K. Henley, President HMU Consulting, Columbus, OH How Good Lawyers Survive Bad Times: Management* So many lawyers feel like their law firm ship is heading for the rocks. But there are things you can do to counteract the economy and many of them have to do with managing your practice differently than you might in prosperous times. Take a hard look at your employees. Can you replace a real receptionist with a virtual one? Do you need your legal assistant full time or part-time? Are you watching the books on a monthly basis to catch early warning signs of trouble? Are you in danger of losing good employees because they havent had a raise? Law firm management is dicey in these times, but there are plenty of good suggestions here to help you ride out the storm.
