November 5: What is a ‘Serious’ Genetic Condition and Why It Ethically Matters? with Dr. Vardit Ravitsky

Title:
What is a ‘Serious’ Genetic Condition and Why It Ethically Matters? with Dr. Vardit Ravitsky

Description:
The use of ‘serious’ to describe certain genetic conditions is pivotal in determining current and future applications of repro-genetic technologies. From Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT), through prenatal testing, all the way to potential gene editing, this concept is used as a justification for allowing or even funding certain interventions. Yet, the concept of ‘serious’ remains nebulous and poorly defined. Consequently, its application is inconsistent and not equitable.

Recent work across a range of disciplines and international contexts has begun the process of mapping the contours of this complex concept. This work considers a range of stakeholder perspectives and various approaches to its operationalization. A better understanding of this concept can assist policymakers, clinicians, and families to apply it in relevant contexts.

This talk will explore the implications of ‘serious’ and the emerging attempts to clarify its use.

September 30: What Every Legal Professional Should Know About Domestic Violence Law in Ohio

This one-hour CLE that equips Ohio attorneys in any practice area with current, practical knowledge of the state's rapidly changing domestic violence law. Domestic violence reaches every attorney — through a client, an employee, a family member, or a friend — so this program is built for general practitioners, not only family-law or criminal specialists.

The hour walks through five recent statutory and constitutional developments — plus one prominent bill Ohio has not passed — and what each requires attorneys to do differently: the felony reclassification of strangulation (R.C. 2903.18); repeat-offender sentencing and the pregnancy enhancement under House Bill 111; the 2025 electronic-tracking statute reaching AirTags and location apps (R.C. 2903.216); the gap between the permanent federal firearms ban on a misdemeanor conviction and Ohio's weapons-disability statute (18 U.S.C. 922 and R.C. 2923.13); the constitutional victim rights of Marsy's Law and their implementation through R.C. Chapter 2930; and Aisha’s Law — the lethality-screening bill passed twice by the House and never enacted — alongside what R.C. 2935.032 actually requires of police today.

Attendees also learn the attorney mandatory-reporter framework (R.C. 2151.421 and R.C. 5101.61) and how to read a protection order for enforceability — including the firearms-surrender and anti-electronic-monitoring language that must be requested explicitly or the protection fails. Each participant receives a statutory reference handbook keyed to the Ohio Revised Code.

Terminating a Construction Project Before Completion: Do’s, Don’ts, Claims & Litigation Webinar [On Demand]

Construction is expensive, and the spectrum of professional practice varies wildly. While some professionals uphold the industry’s gold standards, others can be disappointing at best and criminally negligent at worst. In some cases, a judgement call must be made to terminate a project prior to completion. Unfortunately, this process is usually expensive and complicated.
It is possible to ease the stress of ending a project by using a standard structure that considers the contract documents, construction industry standards, and the “iron triangle” (scope, budget, and schedule with quality at the core) of project management. This structure does not magically make termination quick and cheap, but it does make the process as efficient and painless as possible. No matter what stage of a construction project-gone-bad you are in, remember you are not trapped. You can always negotiate from a position of strength.
"Terminating a Construction Project Before Completion" is for everyone involved in the business of building or buildings, including property owners & managers, governmental organizations, developers, contractors, insurers, lawyers, and anyone else caught up in the headaches of a project that has gone wrong or has already been terminated. The course will explain the roles and responsibilities of the different parties who contribute to a construction project, teach our Construction Claim Analysis framework, and review case studies that demonstrate successful project termination from the perspective of both owners and subcontractors.

• Learn a framework for analyzing a construction claim.
• Discuss how damages are calculated after a contract is terminated.
• Strategize how one might salvage a construction project rather than terminate.
• Review case studies and real world examples of projects that were terminated before completion.
