- October 26, 2010
During the Association of Corporate Counsel’s Annual Meeting, Jordan A. Thomas participated as a panelist during a session entitled, “Ethics Issues in Government Investigations,” on October 26, 2010 from 9:30 – 10:30 a.m.
During this session, Mr. Thomas and other experienced counsel addressed the following topics: what actions to take during the first 24 hours after you are notified that your company is being investigated by the government; how to handle executives and employees who mistakenly press for in-house to represent their interests (as opposed to the company’s); and how to handle communications with employees, the press, clients and suppliers. The program also addressed ethical limits on government actions and appropriate means for invoking them.
