Gregory Markel and Daphne Morduchowitz to Speak on Attorney-Client Privilege in M&A Deals

Gregory Markel will be moderating and Daphne Morduchowitz will be a panelist at the Strafford webinar, "Attorney-Client Privilege in M&A Deals: Preserving and Controlling the Privilege,” on Tuesday, September 14, 2021 at 1:00 p.m. EST.

Attorney-client privilege issues abound in M&A transactions due to the disclosure of sensitive information between prospective deal parties during due diligence and negotiations, as well as the disclosure of deal-related documents to financial advisers and other third parties.
Accordingly, counsel advising deal parties must provide guidance on sharing information without waiving the privilege.

The panel will guide deal counsel in navigating the challenges of preserving and controlling the attorney-client privilege in M&A transactions. The panel will discuss when and how the attorney-client privilege is implicated in communications and documents exchanged between prospective deal parties and members of the transaction team, such as investment bankers and other financial advisers.

Listen as the authoritative panel of attorneys examines current issues surrounding the attorney-client privilege in the context of M&A deals, including who holds the privilege, how it can be waived, and how to shield the information. In addition, the panel will discuss their insights and best practices to preserve and control the privilege.
