Drafting Document Retention Policies

Lorman Education Services
BenefitsThere can be little question in today's world that a thoughtful, well-designed document retention policy is a must for every corporation. Yet many have failed to take this important step to protect their companies. Many more have failed to effectively implement their document retention policies after they have been adopted. The cost of these shortcomings is significant. A corporation may lose significant business information required for ongoing business needs. It may also be subjected to civil sanctions, including exclusion of evidence, monetary penalties, adverse inference jury instructions and default judgment, as well as the more serious potential for criminal liability. Indeed, several courts have made clear that a corporation's failure to abide by a reasonable document retention policy will not be taken lightly and the risks created by document mishandling and the responsibilities to ensure correct handling will often fall to both inside and outside counsel. This audio conference is designed to help you gain a better understanding of the important factors that must be considered in developing a document retention policy, as well as the role of counsel in relation to the corporation's policy once litigation is reasonably foreseeable.

This audio conference is primarily designed for attorneys. Other legal professionals may also benefit from attending.
