The FTC’s recent proposed rule barring non-compete agreements will require companies to think critically and be proactive in their approach to protecting competitive information. The ACC Georgia Chapter welcomes Polsinelli whose attorneys, Leslie SpasserAmanda NorcrossJoe Sharp, and Burton Peebles will present “Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Non-Competes in Georgia (But Were Afraid to Ask):  FTC’s Guidance and its Impact on Georgia Companies”. This panel will provide insight into the FTC’s guidance, address the intersection of the FTC’s guidance with Georgia law and explore alternative means to protect valuable company assets. Looking at the issue from an employment law, transactional and litigation perspective, the panel will discuss the potential impact of the proposed bar on non-competes and its impact on employment contracts, corporate transactions, trade secret protection and litigation trends in Georgia.

To be Covered:

Historical Development;

Policy Perspective;

Types and Where You Will Find Them;

Litigation Considerations;

Federal and State Curtailment Efforts; and

Effective Drafting in Light of Potential Bans

When a company announces the sale, purchase, or restructuring of a business unit or entity, a company’s supplier contracts and contract practices will come into focus for large-scale analysis and remediation. Multiple stakeholders involved in the contracting process will be pulled out of their daily routine to prepare information on the Company’s Contracts. This session will focus on the legal department’s role in that process and how to prepare for a transaction or restructuring before it is announced or even contemplated. 

 
Registration & Lunch:    11:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
Program:                         12:00 p.m. to 1:00 p.m.

In today’s fast-moving environment, companies must plan for the next crisis or risk falling behind. A corporate crisis can unfold over the course of a few hours on social media and rapidly generate media attention, litigation, state and federal regulatory inquiries, and—quite often—an “invitation” to testify before Congress. In this webinar we will discuss practical steps to prevent and prepare for a potential crisis.

This includes:

· Assessing potential risks to your organization and taking steps to minimize those risks;

· Preparing for the unexpected, including designating a cross-functional rapid response team;

· Creating a plan for consistent internal and external communications—even as fact development is ongoing; and

· Navigating investigations and parallel proceedings.

· Guidance on maintaining attorney-client privilege, or planning ahead for selective waiver of privilege 

· Role of in-house counsel in a crisis – is legal the quarterback of the offense, or just one of numerous players

Presented by Ed O’Callaghan and Alyssa DaCunha, Partners at WilmerHale and Todd Aman, Senior Vice President, General Counsel & Secretary at FiscalNote.

1.5 Hours of VA MCLE pending.
