ABA Issues New Ethics Opinion on Encryption of Attorney-Client Email, Jim Calloway’s Law Practice Tips Blog

Does your state have an ethics opinion about encryption of your firm’s email? Do you use encryption? Do you use a secure cloud based platform? If you are not sure, don’t you think you should check?

Most law firms frequently use email over fax and regular mail to communicate with their clients, their expert witnesses, and opposing counsel. What is your obligation to ensure confidentiality of your firm’s email, and are you meeting it?

The ABA’s ethics opinion is instructive, as well as the Texas ethics legal opinion referred to by Mr. Calloway at the end of his post. -CCE

How Do Understaffed Nursing Homes Affect Patients, posted on behalf of D’Amico & Pettinicchi, LLC (April 28, 2017)

http://bit.ly/2pWhPEr

This is a subject I’ve witnessed myself when taking care of a family member in a nursing home, so I admit my personal bias. While it may not be true for all nursing homes. I was told by nursing home staff that it is more often true that nursing home residents receive better care when family are frequent visitors and are paying close attention to the care. Unfortunately, not all nursing home residents have family advocates who are committed to their quality of care provided by nursing homes.

Understaffing is only one of the usual chronic problems in most nursing homes, which is the topic of this post. -CCE
