Overview

Everyday Mistakes That Silently Kill Privilege Before You Even Know It's Gone

Attorney-client privilege is one of the most powerful protections in the law - and one of the easiest to lose. An unnecessary CC, an uploaded document in an AI tool, a careless text message, and simply blending legal and business advice can jeopardize confidentiality and create expensive discovery disputes. As technology changes the way lawyers and clients communicate, protecting privileged information has become more complicated than ever.

This practical program walks through the most common privilege blunders attorneys make and the steps you can take to avoid them. Whether you practice litigation, transactional law, or serve as in-house counsel, you'll leave with practical guidance, risk-reduction strategies, and best practices you can implement immediately to better protect your clients and your practice. Register today!

  • Learn how attorney-client privilege is most commonly waived - and how to prevent it.
  • Protect your clients' most sensitive communications across email, text messages, and other channels.
  • Understand how courts are treating privilege in an era of AI.
  • Understand how to scrub metadata and hidden data before producing or sharing a document.
  • Learn the safeguards needed before looping consultants, experts, or vendors into privileged communications.
