May, 2009 Bob Hemley and Andrew Manitsky Teach Legal EthicsOn May 8, 2009, Bob Hemley and Andrew Manitsky gave presentations to the Vermont Association for Justice (formerly the Vermont Trial Lawyers Association) on legal ethics. Mr. Hemley focused on issues relating to the "anti-contact rule" in the Rules of Professional Conduct, which generally prohibits attorneys from contacting persons they know to be represented by counsel in a particular matter. Mr. Manitsky focused on ethical issues relating to inadvertent and unauthorized document production, including the production of "metadata," the hidden code and information contained within electronic documents. Attorneys in attendance earned credit toward their continuing legal education requirements in ethics. Megan J. Shafritz Elected To VTAJ Board Of GovernorsGravel and Shea shareholder Megan J.
