ExecSense, June 2010, Minutes: 60

What Litigators Need to Know About E-Contacts and Personal Jurisdiction is a time efficient way to be up-to-date on one of the most cutting-edge procedural issues in civil litigation - what type and amount of “e-contacts” (e-mails, web sites, text-messaging, cloud computing, social networking sites, etc.) are sufficient to establish personal jurisdiction over a defendant whose only contact with the jurisdiction is through those e-contacts. Take the 60 minutes to view this webinar (on your computer, mobile phone, iPod or printed out) to be in-the-know on how personal jurisdiction requirements are adapting to the Internet age, learn about the latest legal developments in this evolving area, and understand how you should be advising your litigation clients accordingly.

- The 10 questions most asked by litigators and their clients about what e-contacts are sufficient to establish personal jurisdiction and the impact on their litigation strategy
