Protecting Privilege from New Lines of Attack (On Demand)

Many countries recognize the importance of protecting the confidentiality of communications between lawyers and clients. Nonetheless, governments often seek to invade these protected communications during the course of their investigations. This trend is particularly noticeable when it comes to communications between in-house lawyers and their clients, even in countries that recognize legal professional privilege for in-house counsel legal advice. Baker Botts partners Maureen Ohlhausen (former Acting-Chair, Federal Trade Commission) and Andrew George will discuss these developments and offer ideas on how in-house counsel can better protect their confidential client communications.
