Ethics Panel: Confidentiality vs Disclosure – Timing and Reasoning

In a receivership, transparency isn’t just about what you share, it’s about when you share it. Stephanie Reed Traband joins a panel to examine the ethical considerations surrounding confidentiality, disclosure, and timing. The discussion explores how receivers balance the need for transparency with the obligation to protect sensitive information, covering topics such as confidential client communications, public filing requirements, nondisclosure agreements, filing documents under seal, and preserving or waiving attorney-client privilege. Stephanie also shares practical insights on when disclosure is appropriate, and when withholding information is in the best interest of the receivership.
