Concurrent PD Sessions 9:00 AM 12:00 PM WTCC, Room 200C 3.1 Maritime Piracy Co-presented by the National Maritime Law and Military Law Sections The resurgence of piracy against commercial vessels in recent years, particularly in the waters off the Horn of Africa, has brought into sharp focus the risks to all those with an interest in the vessel and its cargo and to the maritime corridors upon which international trade depends. The Canadian Forces have been deployed in these same waters as part of the international community s response to this activity. A recent decision of Mr. Justice David Steel in England, ruling that a payment of ransom to Somali pirates was not contrary to public policy, has shown that the subject of piracy is of interest to both the military and to the legal and commercial communities. The panel, representing this variety of perspectives, will guide participants through this interesting subject through presentations and moderated Q&A.

Compartmentalization The role of corporate counsel has undergone a dramatic transformation in the last 10 years. Today s in-house counsel wears multiple hats: legal advisor, business advisor, legal department manager, compliance of icer, mediator, government affairs liaison, securities market gatekeeper, risk manager, ethicist, corporate secretary, and more. What is driving this merging of functions? How does one person manage this expanding set of responsibilities? What are the demarcations between commercial, risk and legal, and providing legal advice vs. commercial advice? What are the legal and practical implications of in-house counsel wearing so many hats? What are the bene its and disadvantages of a centralized versus compartmentalized law department?

Because the client is a corporation, and because of the dual role of the in-house lawyer as counsel to and employee of the corporation, unique questions arise when privilege is asserted for communications with in-house counsel. This session will uncover the greatest and most troubling threats to corporate privilege, and provide practical strategies for establishing and preserving privilege. Topics include recent clari ications of the law on solicitor-client privilege, distinguishing legal advice from business advice, waiver of privilege and correcting inadvertent disclosures, use of privilege to protect disclosure of information and documents for litigation purposes, and the role of non-lawyer legal of icers and in-house lawyers internationally in asserting privilege.
