Model litigation audit checklist

At the ACC 2004 Annual Meeting, four in-house lawyers spoke about litigation prevention (Course 904). The handout contained a six-page “Model Litigation Audit Checklist,” which would help any inside lawyer speak to executives about such topics as the basic elements of litigation, privilege, document retention, legal risks at meetings and associations, depositions, and testifying. The material originally came from Boise Cascade’s legal department, but the handout listed a contact person at ACC, Jim Merklinger.
