Partner Jonathan Barr will be a speaker for a PLI webinar on Sept. 2, 2020. The topic of the daylong CLE session is “Storming the Gatekeepers: When In-House Counsel and Compliance Professionals are Investigated” and Barr will discuss:
- How to defend an in-house lawyer or compliance person in a government investigation.
- Can in-house or outside lawyers divulge privileged communications in defending themselves?
- When should you raise a “reliance on counsel” defense and what happens to the privilege if the defense is explicitly or implicitly waived?
- When will the government charge an individual versus the employer for compliance failures?
- Successful defense strategies in recent government investigations of in-house counsel and compliance professionals.
