Professionalism in the Age of Social Media: How to Avoid Blog Blunders, Twitter Troubles, and Facebook Faux Pas
with Agnieszka A. McPeak, Stone Pigman
- Love it or hate it, social media is here to stay. Individuals have embraced social media because it simplifies staying in touch and provides an online platform for sharing photos, stories, ideas, and interests with others.
- Businesses have discovered social media's utility and use it to create brand awareness, manage online reputation, recruit talent, learn about new developments in the field, monitor competitor activities, and generate leads to intercept potential business prospects. Lawyers too have seized upon social media as a tool in litigation.
- The casual and open environment of social media often clashes with the legal profession. Even when not at work, attorneys are held to a higher standard and must maintain integrity, honesty, civility, and professionalism.
