Lawyers & Social Media: Beware of Ethical Pitfalls
Attorneys are just as likely to use social media in their everyday lives as non-attorneys. But where a hasty post or comment might lead only to embarrassment for some, a seemingly innocent disclosure by an attorney could lead to serious ethical repercussions. In this program, Julie Tappendorf, the co-author of the book "Social Media & Local Governments: Navigating the New Public Square," will provide an overview of the most common ways social media use by lawyers could lead to ethical violations of the ABA Model Rules of Professional Conduct.
Speaker: Julie Tappendorf
