General practitioners are always in the fast lane, dabbling in multiple practice areas, jumping from case to case and struggling to stay on top of changes in the law. They are quite literally always on the go, running to client consultations, court appearances, and depositions. The one constant is the expectations of each client: general practitioners are expected to know and understand every new development that may impact an open case.
General practitioners, like every lawyer, can no longer ignore social media. Even if you do not personally use social media websites like Facebook and Twitter, your clients are using them and you need to be familiar with how they work. Social media can be valuable resources, and they can create ethical nightmares. Join our instructor for an overview of what you need to know about these increasingly popular online resources. Specific topics include intellectual property rights, lawyer advertising, privacy of information, employment matters, discovery and litigation, and general business and ethical concerns.
