March 27: National Security Review of Foreign Investment Transactions

While bipartisan legislative successes have been few and far between in our highly-charged political environment, a general consensus on the need to provide a stronger framework for reviewing foreign investment in US companies led to the passage of the Foreign Investment Risk Review Modernization Act (‘FIRRMA’) in the summer of 2018. The issuance of a final rule in January 2020 implementing FIRRMA subsequently crystallized the process for CFIUS review of inbound transactions. 

This seminar will review the landscape leading to FIRRMA, the highpoints of the new regulatory process, and provide an update on recent developments as changing national security concerns continue to provide calls for additional regulatory changes. It will also offer significant instruction on techniques for researching various aspects of this topic—from legislation to regulation and even how to analyze market examples of CFIUS approval clauses in M&A agreements.

November 20+28: Breached! Cybersecurity 101

With data security incidents and data breaches happening daily, it’s important for attorneys to turn towards one reality—it’s NOT IF a breach or incident will occur—it’s WHEN. These incidents are forcing government agencies, companies, law firms, etc. to address, define, and handle these challenges. As cloud technology and big-data analytics have become the norm, cybersecurity risks have increased and it is more important than ever to have both an avoidance and a response plan in place. During this 60-minute CLE session, we will cover (1) the latest security threats in the news and what’s being done to address/remedy them, (2) explore current data breach laws, (3) the roles and responsibilities of government agencies, and (4) how to prepare a data breach avoidance plan as well as a data breach response plan. After completing this course, you will be able to: Know the latest cybersecurity threats the U.S. is facing; understand the different roles and responsibilities of various agencies; what the legal framework surrounding data breaches look like?

December 13: The Year in Review and Looking Forward to 2024: What Every California Employer Needs to Know

The past year has been extremely challenging, and 2024 should prove just as challenging. There have been a number of laws signed by the governor that California employers should be aware of. These include expanded sick leave, leave for reproductive loss events, greater protections for off-duty cannabis use, and a new obligation to adopt a comprehensive workplace violence prevention program. There have also been agency and judicial developments that will impact California and other employers in the coming year. Join Cozen O’Connor for our annual review of these employment law developments affecting California employers. We will explain the new laws scheduled to take effect in 2024, review important U.S. Supreme Court and California court rulings, discuss pending legislation and key court decisions and, of course, review COVID-19 requirements that remain in effect. We will also cover best practices to prepare your organization for employment law compliance in the new year and beyond.
