The mission of the Corporate Litigation Counsel
Committee is to provide a forum in which in-house litigators and firm
litigators with in-house and/or governmental experience can share
information and best practices, as well as address legislative,
regulatory and policy issues impacting the corporate community with
judges, public sector lawyers, and prominent law firm practitioners.
Future discussions and activities of the Committee are
expected to include the following:
• Corporations' responses to U.S. government demands for
waiver
of the attorney-client privilege;
• The “Boomerang Effect” – Addressing the
increasing trend of
lawyers going from law firm practice to in-house practice
and
back again, and how to manage each transition;
• Workshops with Commercial Division justices; and
• Dialogues with federal and state court judges.
The Corporate Litigation Counsel Committee is chaired by
Jamie Stern,
Managing Director – Senior Litigation Counsel, UBS, New York City
