A shift in the economy often brings a shift in legal strategy. According to the 2022 ACC Law Department Management Benchmarking Report, a reduced legal budget may be on the horizon and corporate legal departments of all sizes are opting to handle more due diligence, legal research, and litigation case management in-house than they did last year. Meanwhile, courts are still recovering from pandemic delays. As legal counsel, what policies and actions should you consider during an economic downturn?
Join David Greenbaum, Vice President of Intellectual Property and Litigation at Nuance, and Bowditch attorneys Patrick Tracey, Doug Radigan, and Danielle Lederman to learn actionable steps to protect your organization, such as:
Effectively managing claims, including through ADR and other strategies;
How to incorporate protective contract clauses, including provisions relating to confidentiality, force majeure, no construction against the drafter, termination, arbitration, indemnification, and more;
Key venue and forum considerations (including an update on New England Courts);
Best practices for planning your outside budget;
How to approach layoffs and reduction in your workforce.

From phishing attacks to ransomware, organizations of all sizes have been targets of cyberattacks. Some of the largest breaches on record, in fact, spawned from a smaller company (tied to the true ‘target’ through commercial operations) being attacked as a jumping off point for the larger target. Following a security incident, legal liability often follows – ranging from the loss of customer or employee personal information to the breach of contracts that call for certain security measures to be in place.
Join this interactive session, led by an ACC member and a security expert, as we explore the common means of attack, methods used to investigate and remediate such attacks, and preventative measures that should be considered. And feel free to have your organization’s CIO, CISO, or technical staff join in the session.
This event will be held in person at The Frick Building, Tenant Innovation Center, 437 Grant Street, Pittsburgh, PA 15219 and also via webinar.
