Creating a Global Law Department: China and US Perspectives

The goal of the program is to educate in house counsel and outside counsel, using US and Chinese lawyers, to demonstrate how to build an effective global corporate law department.  We will look at the law department structure, crisis management, corporate compliance, internal investigations, litigation management, and the client relationship and the attorney client privilege.   This will be an excellent opportunity to network with in house and outside counsel from the US and China and explore ways to improve the global Law Department.
