What are an attorney’s ethical duties in the handling of discovery of

electronically stored information?

THESTATEBAROFCALIFORNIA STANDINGCOMMITTEEONPROFESSIONAL RESPONSIBILITYANDCONDUCT FORMALOPINIONNO.2015-193

#ClioWeb

An attorney lacking the required competence for e-discovery issues has three options:

1. Acquire sufficient learning and skill before performance is required;

2. Associate with or consult technical consultants or competent counsel; or

3. Decline the client representation.

#ClioWeb

An attorney’s obligations under the ethical duty of competence evolve as new technologies develop and become integrated with the practice of law.
