Understanding The Duty Of Legal Technology Competence

Don't miss it!

It’s been five years since the ABA created an ethical duty of technology competence. In the years since, a majority of states have adopted this duty, yet most lawyers still have little understanding of the scope of this duty and what it means for the day-to-day practice of law. Courts and ethics panels have provided little guidance, and many lawyers still lack basic competence in legal technology. On October 11, ATL and Exterro will present a webinar for the relatively tech-savvy lawyer who strives to meet and exceed his duty of competence and is interested in the ever-evolving implications of the duty as it relates to actual practice, with a particular focus on eDiscovery. Webinar moderator Bob Ambrogi will be joined by expert panelists to do the following:

  • Explore the boundaries of the duty of technology competence;
  • Provide an understanding of the history and purpose of the duty;
  • Explore the practical impact of the duty of competence on the practice of law; and
  • Discuss the interplay between the duty of competence and eDiscovery issues.

Time: October 11 at 1 p.m. EST
