Moderator:
Joseph H. Jones, Jr., Esq., Director of Risk Management, Travelers
Speakers:
Robert Modica, Esq. and Joseph Salvo, Esq., Gordon & Rees Scully Mansukhani, LLP

Faced with countless ethical, statutory and contractual obligations to protect this information, the modern law firm must be proactive and hyper-vigilant in its data security practices. With the benefit of hindsight and a largely undefined standard of care, plaintiffs will scrutinize the means by which a law firm attempted to secure client information in the event of a breach, with legal malpractice claims sure to follow.
