Navigating the Ethical Pitfalls of Social Media

The proliferation of social media as a vital tool in business and personal communication presents many ethical traps for lawyers and their clients. At what point do conflicts of interest dictate who makes your friend-list? How much can you discuss your current business without violating confidentiality? Can posts on social media sites violate lawyer advertising rules? Underlying all of these questions is how can a good social media policy prevent problems? These questions and more will be discussed as we explore the spectrum of ethical issues that affect lawyers and other business professionals, suggest practical tips for avoiding problems, and provide a framework for analyzing new situations which may arise.
