More about the Webinar:
California state and federal employment laws are constantly changing. Statutes are updated annually, and new cases are reported monthly. Solo and small firm attorneys who wish to “dabble” and/or expand their practice into employment face multiple traps for the unwary. Whether you seek new clients who are plaintiffs and employees, or defendants and employers, or need to find or work with workplace investigators, this MCLE program is designed to: assist solo and small firm attorneys in fulfilling their ethical duty of competency and other key ethical duties; teach the basics of prosecuting and defending employment claims and involvement with workplace investigations; and provide practical training on spotting uncommon employment law issues.
Attendees will learn from faculty comprised of four employment law attorneys with a combined seventy (70) years of experience, including at solo and small law firms, and who bring wide-ranging perspectives of representing plaintiffs, employees, defendants, employers, and have experience with workplace investigations. Our faculty also organized this program into 3 specific learning objectives :
Learn about key ethical issues at intake and client retention stage of an employment law case;
Learn how to issue spot key California state and federal employment law issues; and
Learn the basics of prosecuting and defending employment claims, and involvement with workplace investigations.
