October 28: Legal and Ethical Issues of Medical AI

Case Western Reserve University School of Law logo As AI increasingly enters clinical practice, several legal and ethical issues confront clinicians, health systems, and patients.

His work has appeared in Science, Nature, JAMA, NEJM, and leading law reviews. He teaches patents, health law, life sciences innovation, AI law, and science fiction and the law. Nicholson is a Senior Fellow at the University of Copenhagen Center for Advanced Studies in Bioscience Innovation Law and a Celadon Fellow at Seoul National University Center for Trustworthy AI. He holds a Biological Sciences PhD and a JD from Columbia.
  • Identify key legal and ethical issues raised by medical AI in clinical practice.
  • Examine liability questions when clinicians rely on or disagree with AI models.
  • Understand informed consent requirements for patients when AI is used in care.
  • Explore best practices for documentation when clinicians and AI recommendations diverge.

October 27: Perfecting Without Perfectionism: How to Strive for Excellence Without Stressing Out Over Unattainable Ideals

Each of these subjects will be discussed as well as strategies shown to help effectively manage perfectionistic tendencies, including:
  • Carol Dweck's Mindset work.
  • Dr. Kristin Neff's self compassion practice.
  • Mindfulness.

September 15: The Gruntled Lawyer's Survival Guide: Stay Sane, Stay Licensed

Nobody puts this in the Rules of Professional Conduct:
You can't be diligent, competent, or clear-headed with clients when you're running on fumes.

Burnout doesn't just wreck your weekends. It shows up in missed deadlines, short tempers, sloppy communication, and the kind of poor judgment that gets you a bar complaint.

Alan Klevan and Wendy Meadows have both lived it. Disgruntled lawyer to gruntled lawyer, and back again more times than either of them would like to admit. In this session, they're skipping the theory and getting into the real stuff: what burnout actually looked like for them, what pulled them out of it, and what they do now to stay out of it.

Then it's brass tacks. 20 real, usable tips, connected straight back to the ethics rules that actually govern how lawyers practice. No fluff. No "just meditate more." Just the practical moves that keep you sane, sharp, and licensed.
  • Identify the specific competence, diligence, and communication rules most commonly compromised by burnout and depletion.
  • Recognize the early warning signs of professional burnout in themselves and their colleagues before it becomes a disciplinary issue.
  • Apply at least three of the 20 presented strategies immediately in their own practice.
  • Build a personal, sustainable wellness practice that directly supports their ethical obligations, not one that competes with them.

Description:
Explore the valuation of residential real estate and the role appraisals play in divorce and related property matters in this one hour webinar. Presented by Paul A. Sobol of Sobol and Associates, Inc. and Sy Sommer, Esq. of LEAP, this program explains how residential appraisals work, what appraisers may evaluate, and how a property condition, amenities, deficiencies, and relevant market data can affect its value.

Participants will learn how an appraiser identifies the property being appraised, selects appropriate comparable properties, and reconciles those comparables to arrive at a supported valuation. This session also addresses a common challenge in real estate valuations, the belief that a home is worth more than comparable sales indicate, and uses case studies to illustrate how appraisal principles are applied in practice.
  • Understand how residential appraisals work and what factors influence valuation.
  • Learn how appraisers select and reconcile comparable properties.
  • Identify how property condition, amenities, deficiencies, and market data affect value.
  • See case studies illustrating how appraisal principles apply in real world disputes.

November 11: The Information Power and Its Discontents

Case Western Reserve University School of Law logo Description:
The federal executive wields vast power to determine what official information reaches the public. The public relies on this information to conduct research, do business, and make countless health, economic, and personal decisions. Official data form the basis for a shared public reality that makes self governance possible.

Agencies enjoy significant discretion regarding what official information to publish and how, when, and whether to publish in the first instance. This is the information power. Although there is a loose assemblage of statutes, executive directives, and internal agency rules that govern some of these decisions, most are discretionary. Courts, Congress, scholars, and even agencies themselves are not quite sure what to do about them.

This Article makes three principal contributions:
  • Describe the information power as a form of executive authority distinct from rulemaking, adjudication, and enforcement, encompassing agency decisions to collect, create, preserve, organize, interpret, disseminate, and alter official information.
  • Identify the assorted statutes, directives, and internal rules that apply as information policy and demonstrate how the legal architecture has not kept pace with the sprawling informational architecture it purports to govern, including documenting how information policy has evolved and how the power has been abused.
  • Confront the challenge of how to constrain abuses without preventing agencies from deciding how best to alert and inform the public, offering principles for checking abuses of the information power while protecting public trust through transparency, procedure, methodological integrity, and accountability.
The executive information power may be inevitable, but its concentration is not. The task for law is to preserve the government capacity to produce authoritative information while preventing any administration from becoming its sole and unaccountable arbiter.
