Members of Upchurch Watson White & Max's Center for National Class and Mass Actions explain how to maintain ethical standards and civil discourse before, during and after mediations that arise from class and mass actions.
Terry White, Steve Jaffe and Lance Harke have decades of class and mass action experience in a vast array of cases. Please join them as they answer questions posed in advance by attendees and inject perspectives from the Plaintiff and Defendant side -- and the middle.
In addition to the insight the four panelists will provide, attendees also will gain complimentary CLE credit through The Florida Bar: 1.0 General/Ethics, plus 1.0 Civil Trial Certification credits.
This free-CLE Webinar is scheduled for noon to 1 p.m. Tuesday, May 18, 2021.
After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the webinar.
