Text, Chat, and Compliance: Best Practices for Business Communications and Legal Discovery
"Text, Chat, and Compliance: Best Practices for Business Communications and Legal Discovery" is a comprehensive program co-sponsored by the Federal Bar Association and myLawCLE, focusing on the management and discovery of text and chat messages exchanged via personal and third-party messaging platforms, including ephemeral messaging tools. The session is led by experts from Crowell & Moring LLP, featuring John E. Davis, co-chair of the firm's E-Discovery group, and Halie E. Kaplan, an associate with extensive experience in complex discovery processes.
The program delves into several critical areas: the rise of remote work and the increased use of text and ephemeral messages on personal devices and third-party platforms for business communications; the challenges associated with the discoverability and preservation of messages from both personal and corporate devices; recent updates from the Department of Justice (DOJ), Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), and other regulatory agencies, as well as relevant case law; strategies for compliance and litigation readiness concerning corporate messaging and device use policies; and best practices for managing mobile data reviews and the inherent challenges in discovery processes.
This on-demand course, available since February 13, 2025, offers a two-hour Continuing Legal Education (CLE) credit and is priced at $195.00. It is accessible to all Federal Bar Association CLE Pass subscribers, who can access this course along with over 1,000 other live webinars. The program is conducted virtually, allowing participants to engage from any location.
Legal and compliance professionals, including in-house counsel, compliance officers, and litigation support staff, will find this program particularly beneficial. It provides essential insights into effectively managing modern communication tools within the legal and regulatory frameworks, ensuring defensible and efficient responses to inquiries and litigation.
