After more than two decades, France is closer than ever to extending legal professional privilege (LPP) to in-house counsel. In-house counsel located in France and in European countries that have extended LPP to in-house counsel will share how they anticipate LPP for in-house counsel in France will impact in-house legal practice within multinational corporations and French companies that compete in a global marketplace. The panel will also explore how the growing number of European countries embracing LPP for in-house counsel may shape the European Union’s approach to legal professional privilege, potentially paving the way for broader, standardized protections across the region.
