Presented by David Elkanich, Buchalter
The practice of law is changing. Lawyers no longer need to sit in their office all day or review every document produced in discovery, especially now during the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic. Competent lawyers can utilize technology to provide more efficient and effective services to clients. But with that convenience, also comes risk. This presentation will explore how the ethics rules apply to lawyers, both professionally and personally, in this changing landscape. From "reply to all" to artificial intelligence and jury selection, we will discuss competency in this age of technology.
Speaker Bio: Mr. Elkanich is a shareholder at Buchalter, in both the Portland and Seattle offices, and chairs the firm's Professional Responsibility Practice Group. Mr. Elkanich focuses his practice primarily on legal ethics, risk management, and discipline defense. He frequently counsels lawyers and law firms regarding how they can innovate through legal technology and the creation of new policies and firm structures to address client needs and the changing legal landscape. In particular, Mr. Elkanich is interested in how lawyers navigate an "electronic" practice, including cloud computing mining metadata, social media, data privacy and security issues particular to lawyers.
