May 29, 2009 MORNING PROGRAM: THE CYBERSLEUTH’S GUIDE TO THE INTERNET

SUPER SEARCH ENGINE STRATEGIES: MASTERING GOOGLE AND BEYOND Attendees will learn how the Internet is changing the way they need to research in order to competently represent their clients – and to avoid ethical or malpractice issues! Do lawyers have a duty to Google? In a recent decision, the court was incredulous that plaintiff failed to “google” the missing defendant as part of his due diligence process and upheld the defendant’s claim of insufficient service of process. Effective Internet searching may now need to become part of every lawyer’s due diligence routine. At this seminar, attendees will learn the best research strategies (including advanced search features at Google and other search engines) that will assist them in meeting their research obligations. “The standard of care imposing liability on lawyers for legal malpractice is changing owing to the increasing use of computers. Internet accessibility is about to profoundly change our research obligations…vast amounts of information are readily available to everyone, including courts and clients….” ABA GP Solo Newsletter

INVESTIGATIVE RESEARCH STRATEGIES FOR LEGAL PROFESSIONALS A lawyer’s research involves much more than just finding cases and statutes. Whether you’re a transactional lawyer looking for information on a company, a consumer attorney tracking down a defective product, a matrimonial attorney searching for a spouse’s assets, or a litigator looking for a missing witness, the Internet can be an indispensable source of information. The ABA’s most recent technology survey found that while nearly 90% of attorneys used the Internet “to research news or current events,” less than half were using the public records or company background information, both of which are freely available on the Internet. The attorney who thinks they’re “using the Internet in their practice” because they are reading the news or checking their stock portfolios online runs the risk of having cases dismissed, losing cases, or facing a malpractice suit…because of information they’ve missed.
