Hackers want your law firm's data.

According to an ABA Legal Technology Survey, 26% of law firms polled said they were breached in 2016.


One firm lost terabytes of data that was damaging to companies, celebrities and world leaders.
Another firm was slammed with a costly class action when it failed to protect sensitive client data.
Costly? Of course. Harmful to your reputation? Absolutely.

Is YOUR firm ready to respond?

Join us in New York City on December 6th when our panel will address questions, such as: 

  • Are law firms and their attorneys adequately prepared to defend data that is in such high demand?
  • Is your firm ready to respond to what many experts consider to be an inevitable attack?
  • What is a firm's -- and an attorney's -- ethical obligation regarding data security knowledge and mitigating the risk of a data breach?
  • What are the “reasonable safeguards” for a given matter?
  • Is your firm leveraging state-of-the-art technology?
  • Most importantly, can you assure your firm's clients that their data is secure?

Has the Buss Stopped? Recoupment Today

Has the Buss Stopped? Recoupment Today: In 1997, the California Supreme Court decided Buss v. Superior Court. In Buss, the court concluded that a liability insurer that defended a mixed action could seek reimbursement from the insured for the defense costs associated with the claims that were not even potentially covered. Since then, numerous courts have held that insurers are entitled to recoup their defense costs associated with uncovered claims or causes of action. On the other hand, a significant number of courts have rejected insurers’ right to recoupment, at least in the absence of a policy provision granting the insurer that right. Some commentators have even suggested that the current judicial trend might be away from permitting insurers to recoup their defense costs. Is that correct? Has the Buss stopped? This panel of coverage experts will analyze insurers’ claimed right to recoupment today, and offer their perspectives on what the law on recoupment should perhaps be and might be in the future.
