Social Media Ethics
Social media can be a great way for attorneys to gather and share information, as well as market their services. It also presents many ethical traps. How can attorneys use Facebook, LinkedIn and other social media in their practice in a way that complies with the Rules of Professional Conduct?
Discussion will include:
- Effectively counseling clients about the legal ramifications of social media
- Protecting client confidentiality
- Managing professional networking websites
- Ensuring that social media postings comply with advertising requirements
- Managing online client reviews
