On July 21, 2017, Nick Scala of Conn Maciel Carey’s national MSHA Practice, presented a webinar regarding Working Effectively with Counsel During MSHA Investigations and Contest.
Dealing with enforcement isn’t at the top of any operator’s favorite things list. It can be a stressful and concerning experience for even the most seasoned operations. Often companies decide to engage with legal counsel during serious investigations or as deadlines approach.
This webinar will outline how to effectively work with counsel during stressful times, such as accident or fatality investigations or abatement and contest. Knowing when to contact counsel and what information should be transferred immediately can jump start the representation and help expedite a resolution.
During this webinar, participants learned about:
When counsel should be engaged while dealing with enforcement personnel;
What information is essential when beginning an attorney-client relationship; and
Advice for working efficiently with counsel during investigations and contests.
