2021 Case Law Seminar: Registration Notice
CWCI has scheduled its 23rd annual California Workers’ Compensation Case Law Seminar, to be held via live online video broadcast on May 18, 2021.
CWCI’s annual case law seminar is the longest running program of its type in the industry and provides the most comprehensive review of the last year in decisional law. The full-day program will review recent court decisions and provide insight into appropriate negotiation and defense strategies for claims personnel, attorneys, hearing reps, and other industry professionals. Many attendees return year after year in order to keep up to date on judicial precedent that affects how they do their jobs every day. CWCI General Counsel Ellen Sims Langille will moderate this year’s program, which will again feature veteran defense attorneys Saul Allweiss and Richard Jacobsmeyer, as well as applicants’ attorney Elizabeth Hudson. Combined, these panelists will offer real-world, practical insight from both defense and applicant perspectives. In addition to providing updates on recent rulings, the speakers will identify issues related to statutory and regulatory changes, examine old case law to see what still applies and what does not, and offer attendees a fresh look at the impact of case law.
