Social media provides an array of opportunities for attorneys to market their services and connect with companies and potential clients, but attorneys have unique ethical responsibilities that pose significant risks and require practical restraints on unfettered and unfiltered usage.

The Knowledge Group has assembled a panel of distinguished practitioners and thought leaders who will share their views on how to approach the various ethical issues surrounding social media use for attorneys. The panelists will examine the pros and cons of social media and will also share practical guidance on how to effectively use social media while avoiding potential pitfalls.
