Part Two | Yelp! I’ve Fallen for Social Media & I Can’t Get Out | 1:00 – 3:00 pm | 2.0 MCLE Ethics
Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and the other social media tools have become ubiquitous in our high-tech society. And while social media can undoubtedly help lawyers to enhance their networks of colleagues, clients and prospective clients, it can also ensnare the unwary in a web of ethical violations. So set your Outlook calendar, post the date on your Facebook wall and get ready to be “linked in” with your colleagues from across the county as we take an in-depth look at the ethics rules, bar opinions and real-life disciplinary cases studies as they relate to social media. And as always, Sean Carter will use the quick wit that has made him a favorite CLE presenter in more than 40 states to make you “Yelp” with laughter while showing you how to stay Four Square within your ethical boundaries.
