2012 Case Law Seminars: Pre-Registration Notice
CWCI has set the dates for its 2012 workers’ compensation case law seminars, which will be held Monday, May 14 at the Grand Event Center in Long Beach and repeated on Wednesday, May 16 at the Hotel Nikko in San Francisco. This will be the 14th year in a row that the Institute has conducted its case law seminars, and as in the past, the 2012 program will offer workers’ compensation claims and legal professionals information and insights on case law so they can work together to develop effective defense and negotiation strategies. The returning faculty for the sessions will be attorneys Saul Allweiss and Michael Marks (Law Offices of Saul Allweiss, Tarzana) and Richard Jacobsmeyer (Shaw, Jacobsmeyer, Crain, & Claffey, Oakland), and the program will again be moderated by CWCI General Counsel Mike McClain.
The presenters will review trends in decisional law and offer both the applicant and defense perspectives on the various topics using a debate-style format. The program will run from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., with lunch from noon to 1 p.m., as well as morning and afternoon breaks.
Continuing education units will be available for attorneys, as CWCI is a state bar of California approved MCLE provider (5 hours). The Institute also will provide certificates of attendance for those seeking credit towards the Department of Insurance workers’ comp claim administrator certification requirements and for submission to the Association of Hearing Representatives of California.
The seminar fee, which includes all materials, beverage service and the luncheon, is $395, with a $75 discount available to CWCI member-company employees (see the back of the attached flyer, which has more details and a registration form). CWCI members should register early as space is limited and registrations will be accepted in the order received.
