Criminal defense attorney Arash Hashemi was the featured speaker at a recent Continuing Legal Education (CLE) program hosted by the Beverly Hills Bar Association (BHBA), titled “Eavesdropping, Consent, and the Law: What Every Attorney Needs to Know.” The program, now available for streaming on the BHBA website, offers attorneys 1 unit of MCLE credit in the field of criminal law.
In the lecture, Hashemi delves into California Penal Code §632 and the nuances surrounding consent, privacy rights, and the legality of recording conversations—topics that are increasingly relevant in today’s tech-driven legal landscape. The presentation provides practical guidance for attorneys navigating criminal cases where audio or video recordings play a central role.
“Understanding the legal boundaries of recording communications is essential for any practitioner—especially in a state like California where the rules are strict and evolving,” said Hashemi, who has more than two decades of courtroom experience.
