SYNOPSIS
Being an effective in-house counsel is a dynamic and challenging role. We’re often called on to give advice to help the business move their mandates forward. These communications, encompassing both legal advice and non-legal information, present a unique challenge.
How do we do that and still maintain privilege?
Sarah Cormack discusses these critical issues including identifying the client, distinguishing legal advice from business advice, understanding the waiving of privilege, and maintaining privilege during internal investigations. This session offers foundational information on privilege and practical advice for protecting it. Gain a comprehensive understanding of privilege protections and actionable strategies for maintaining confidentiality in the dynamic realm of in-house legal practice.
ACKNOWLEDGING FIRST NATIONS TERRITORIES
This rebroadcast is hosted by CBABC, which is located on the traditional and unceded territory of the Coast Salish peoples, including the Squamish, Tsleil-Waututh and Musqueam First Nations. We encourage our members to explore the rich history and knowledge of Indigenous people, and to continue learning about their experience in Canada, past and present.
