Friday, June 10 • 1:00 – 2:30 p.m. ET

Join Alison Grounds, Antonio Avant, Lindsey Mann, and Amanda Strassner Merrill on June 10. eDiscovery 101 is a safe place to get the groundwork you need to understand the basic legal and technical concepts involved in eDiscovery. Effective eDiscovery can help clients reach their goals sooner and most cost-effectively. Alternatively, reactive eDiscovery, or ignoring the unique legal and technical considerations involved in modern litigation, can lead to increased expenses, potential sanctions, and prolonged disputes about these issues.

Our panel will walk through the discovery aspects of a sample case from start to finish – highlighting common pitfalls, resources, rules, and cases that can help get you ready for effectively managing eDiscovery.

The training is approved for MCLE credit in California, Illinois, New Jersey (through reciprocity), New York, and Pennsylvania. We will seek credit for all other states we have office locations. Credit for other jurisdictions may be available upon request. For more information, please email CLE Management at clemanagement@troutman.com.

California was the first state to enact a comprehensive state privacy bill with the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (CCPA). Although the CCPA went into effect on January 1, 2020, it was significantly overhauled during California’s November 2020 General Election, when the California Privacy Rights Act of 2020 (CPRA or the Act) was adopted.

Over the last few weeks, the Troutman Pepper Cybersecurity, Information Governance, and Privacy team produced a five-part series that provided a detailed overview of the CPRA and how it compares to its predecessor – the CCPA. During this webinar, we will summarize the series and discuss the major action items companies have to start implementing now to be prepared by January 1, 2023, the CPRA effective date. Key topics will include:

• Consumer Rights
• Notice and Disclosure Obligations
• Data Processing Obligations
• Litigation and Enforcement

At the conclusion of the series, Troutman Pepper will host a webinar on the CPRA on Thursday, May 26, 2022. To register, please click here.

The CFPB’s recent announcement that it will now be examining non-credit products, services, and processes for discrimination under the Bureau’s UDAAP authority raises the question of how financial services companies should go about testing various aspects of their operations for potential discrimination. In this webinar, we are joined by noted fair lending economist Arthur Baines from Charles River Associates to discuss the potential opportunities for fair lending-style testing in non-credit products, services, and processes.

We will also highlight the dangers of performing testing that may not be capable of capturing the key reasons for certain decisions and actions a financial services company may engage in, and how to address anti-discrimination considerations when controlled testing is not available as an option.

Financial institutions of all sizes need to be mindful of and ready for the breach related threats that they face. Additionally, constantly evolving legal requirements and obligations to notify regulators and customers of security incidents, including a new notification requirement that went into effect for banks on May 1, 2022, pose compliance challenges. Litigation and enforcement actions following cybersecurity incidents are on the rise and can provide insights as well as cautionary tales for financial institutions.
