We will use a series of case studies to explore the role of lawyers and the craft of lawyering in an increasingly complex technology world. The problems will involve issues of privacy, cybersecurity, intellectual property and other technology based issues. Our problems will arise in both the civil and criminal context and we will engage in a series of exercises to explore the analytical, writing, presentation and negotiation skills necessary to effectively perform the multiple roles of lawyers in the technology world.
