The Intellectual Property Owners Association (IPO) will offer a one-hour webinar entitled "Advanced Conflict Waivers: How to Avoid Unpleasant Surprises" on September 22, 2015 from 2:00 to 3:00 pm (ET). Lisa Dolak, University of Syracuse School of Law; Jennifer Johnson of DuPont; and Daniel Tabak of Cohen & Gresser will discuss the enforceability of advance waiver conflict waivers, including a recent case from the Western District of Pennsylvania, in which a law firm was enjoined from representing a company that had launched an unfriendly takeover bid for another of the firm's clients, despite the existence of an advance waiver between the law firm and the target company.
The registration fee for the webinar is $130 (government and academic rates are available upon request). Those interested in registering for the webinar can do so here.
