A programme presented by the IBA Litigation Committee and the IBA Young Litigators Forum
Litigating in the age of social media: tips, tricks and traps
Wednesday 9 April 2025 (1430-1630 SGT)
The advent, and increased use, of social media have had a major influence on our lives and consequently, its presence in litigation is steadily increasing due to its immediacy and widespread reach.
Understanding and managing the questions raised and the complexities of litigation in the age of social media is therefore crucial. When and how can social media be used as a source of evidence? How effectively can information obtained from social media accounts be harnessed for discovery? Can service take place through social media and if so how?
We have assembled a panel of litigators across different jurisdictions and sectors who have amassed experience in dealing with social media in litigation. They will share valuable insights and provide tips on how to handle the impact that the use of social media can have in our day-to-day professional practice. The session will conclude with a workshop where participants will have the opportunity to brainstorm on real-life practical scenarios. This session is a great opportunity for young lawyers and law students to learn from our legal experts.
