Commercial and Federal Litigation

Committee on Corporate Litigation Counsel

 

 

 

 

 

   

 

 

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 Jamie@sternconnolly.com.
