Handling electronic discovery in a foreign country means navigating a mine field of competing legal interests, in-house lawyer Alexander Shapiro told a group of in-house and outside counsel last week.
Shapiro, managing director and senior managing counsel at The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation, spoke at the 2010 spring meeting of the American Bar Association Section of International Law in New York. Prior to joining BNY Mellon, he spent 10 years as a government lawyer, including as an assistant U.S. attorney in New York.
