CPD for in-house lawyers – Privilege

Privilege: key issues for in-house lawyers


The doctrine of privilege is a cornerstone of our legal system and key to the rule of law.  It is also fundamental to the solicitor / client relationship.  But what does it mean for solicitors working in-house?  

 

During this one hour seminar, Mary Forbes, Senior Associate at CMS, will provide:

  1. An overview of legal professional privilege and litigation privilege;
  2. An update on recent case law; and
  3. Some practical considerations - the day to day issues that in-house lawyers may face in connection with privilege.

  • get a refresher on the doctrine of privilege
