About the Program
The unprecedented surge of employment litigation and claims in recent years has cost employers billions of dollars. As a result, in-house counsel are being asked to conduct increasing number of workplace investigations that cover a variety of topics, including sexual harassment, discrimination, SEC violations or other workplace misconduct.
Lawyers must be aware of their ethical responsibilities in conducting these investigations. Join Ford & Harrison for this dynamic and informative program on how to conduct ethical and effective workplace investigations that will protect your organization and reduce potential litigation costs.
This program will include a discussion about:
* Who is your client?
* Communication restrictions with employees
* Ethical concerns with investigative techniques
* Attorney-client privilege and work-product privilege
* Investigator as trial witness
