Social media has blurred the boundary between personal expression and professional conduct.

This course examines how lawyers’ online communication—whether on LinkedIn, X, or other platforms—can engage professional obligations, even when intended as informal commentary.

Through practical examples, the course explores key risks including unintended legal advice, confidentiality breaches, AI-assisted drafting risks, platform-specific considerations, and reputational impact, and provides strategies for navigating digital communication while maintaining professional standards.

It is designed for lawyers seeking to understand how traditional professional duties apply in modern online environments.
