Annual Meeting 2006: This two-part program will explore the many unique legal issues presented by electronic discovery. Part 1 will include discussion of real-life best practices used by corporations to tackle the electronic discovery beast. Whether from a large or small department or company, we’ll send you home with a how-to guide for making sure your processes are not only effective, but efficient as well.

Annual Meeting 2006: In the event of a corporate failure, particularly one involving a failure of legal compliance, in-house lawyers may find themselves increasingly in the cross hairs. Expansive changes in attorney conduct regulation, fiduciary liabilities for gatekeeper failures, dawn file-raids, subpoenas for lawyers as witnesses, certifications without adequate sub-certifications, and even unsuccessful reporting-up-turned-retaliatory discharge all suggest that the potential for personal liability, fiduciary breaches, obstruction charges, and sanctions for in-house lawyers are on the rise. As general counsel, you owe it to yourself and your legal staff to understand trends, best practices, and helpful policies for safeguarding your law department and your lawyers’ exposure before a corporate failure, or even 20/20 hindsight, puts you in the cross hairs.

Read an informative overview for corporate counsel charged with managing, overseeing, or handling the company's worker’s compensation risk. Discussion topics will include utilization of in-house counsel, billing arrangements for outside counsel, the legal ramifications of medical issues peculiar to workers’ compensation cases, different types of workers’ compensation policies (including self insured/high retention options), the interplay of various laws impacting injured workers and significant jurisdictional issues.
