In-house & Outside Counsel Series: Workplace Product Liability; Employment Claims; Government Investigations - On-Demand #MCLE

This series of program was taken from The Network for Trial Law Firm's 2012 convention in Scottsdale, AZ. It includes the following programs:

• Workplace Product Liability: State law imposes strict liability in certain workplace accident matters. Product manufacturers are often barred from contributory negligence and assumption-of-the-risk-defenses. Trial lawyer Sam Santo discusses ways to get that information to a jury anyway.
• A Preemptive Strike Against Employment Claims: Your company's HR personnel are on the front lines with problem employees prior to litigation. Trial lawyer Danya Blair provides practical insights and tips for in-house counsel to get involved early with HR to investigate, discipline and terminate problem employees as your best weapon in avoiding costly employment claims.
• Government Investigations: In-House Preparation and Response:Federal corporate criminal investigations will get an election year boost. Former USDOJ AAG Nathan Hochman discusses recent law enforcement trends targeting corporations, including FCPA, healthcare, tax, securities and banking violations. He will highlight best practices to prepare for such investigations, address them when they occur, and emerge victorious when they conclude.
