Lawyers & the Media: Strategies that Work and Pitfalls to Avoid in Whistleblower Cases
Whistleblowers who come forward to expose wrongdoing are critical sources for journalists. All attorneys who represent whistleblowers and journalists who use them as sources must understand the laws in place to protect whistleblowers when their story reaches the public. Attorneys also need to know how to effectively present their client's cases to journalists. This seminar will cover the 1st amendment protections that attorneys need to know to protect their clients, and journalists need to protect whistleblower sources.  This session will pay special attention to the challenges faced when working with national security employees.

This training will take place on April 1, 2010 at the National Whistleblowers Center and via telephone conference. For a full description of the seminar and faculty information, click here.To register for this seminar, click here .
