This seminar attempts to provide accurate, up-to-date and practical advice on the law of lawyer mistakes including:
• What counts as a mistake? What are a lawyer's obligations to investigate a mistake or to communicate it to others within the firm?
• How serious must a mistake be to trigger an obligation to disclose to the client and what are the consequences of a failure to make a required disclosure? What should such a disclosure say, and not say?
• Can these issues be discussed with a law firm's in house counsel without waiving the privilege? With outside counsel?
• Under what circumstances can a lawyer continue to represent the client after making a mistake?
