The Intellectual Property Owners Association (IPO) will offer a one-hour webinar entitled "Disqualification: Lessons from Recent Cases" on April 10, 2019 from 2:00 to 3:00 pm (ET). William Freivogel, Martin Kaminsky of Greenberg Traurig LLP, and Deanna Kwong of Hewlett Packard Enterprise will look at professional responsibility decisions, as well as the approaches taken by courts when considering disqualification of counsel and discuss whether court disqualification will generally occur solely because of an ethical violation -- or whether the totality of the circumstances will be analyzed. The panel will analyze recent cases with conflicts issues, including those relating to:
• Corporate affiliations
• Advance conflict waivers
• Marketing conversations with prospective clients
• Lateral hires
• The hot potato doctrine
The registration fee for the webinar is $135 (government and academic rates are available upon request). Those interested in registering for the webinar can do so here.
