Webinar Course Description
This webinar will discuss the issues of publishing content and
using social media for those with a forensic practice. Lawyers have often made
experts very reluctant to publish any information and use any social media in
order to engage and network with colleagues, customers, and prospective
employers. I think this has done a massive disservice to those who should be
networking online (as well as offline). Experts are missing out on opportunities for work and opportunities to meet counsel, because of instructions to avoid social media.
