CLEonline.com, together with the Houston Bar Association, are pleased to present a special online CLE seminar on an issue that is becoming of increasing importance to most all lawyers-- electronic discovery.

This seminar will offer a practical discussion of approaches to electronic discovery with a focus on the traps for the unwary.
This seminar features an audio presentation from a live CLE seminar on this topic that was originally conducted by the Houston Bar Association (HBA) on October 17, 2008. This audio presentation features attorney David A. Chaumette of the Houston firm of Baker & McKenzie LLP.
