Overview (Program Summary)

A program hosted by:

ACC Chicago

Group lift-outs have become a critical concern in today’s business landscape, often leading to high-stakes litigation. This comprehensive program will explore what group lift-outs are, why they are increasingly under the microscope, why these situations so frequently become protracted legal disputes, and how to best handle them from both-sides. The session will help equip you with the tools to manage complex and contentious situations effectively and strategically and is ideal for in-house attorneys navigating the legal and operational challenges of group lift-outs and corporate raids.
 

This CLE interactive roundtable will cover the following:
•    What is a group “lift out,” and why are these such a hot issue right now? Why are group lift-outs so often fraught with litigation?
•    When your client believes it has been unlawfully raided, what steps do you take, and how do you analyze the options?
•    How do you measure damages associated with a group lift out?
•    What should the hiring employer do to minimize the risk of litigation when conducting a group lift-out?
•    If all else fails, and litigation ensues, short of all-out combat for multiple years, how do you settle disputes like these?
