Law practice without email is difficult to imagine. Clients and courts not only use it but expect lawyers to use it for communications. But email comes with a host of substantial ethical issues. Is email secure? Can it be used to – even inadvertently – create an attorney-client relationship? How does email impact the attorney-client privilege?
