2 WHY YOU SHOULD ATTEND For complete program details, go to This advanced course of study examines the reevaluation of asbestos litigation that is taking place as a result of the backlash against screenings and developments in state tort law reform. The course comprises 12 hours of instruction, including one hour of ethics. Though there are numerous asbestos conferences, only ALI-ABA s renowned course features first chair players covering all aspects of this complex litigation. You cannot find a more thorough program or a more acclaimed faculty on this subject. The faculty leads you on an examination of ongoing developments while also suggesting likely future measures in the litigation as well as in filings, medicine, bankruptcy, and insurance. These detailed, focused discussions promise to be stimulating and rewarding for any professional involved in this litigation. Intended for practitioners, in-house counsel, insurers, investors, and others interested in asbestos litigation, this course offers up-to-the-minute information on developments in state and federal trial courts and bankruptcy courts. If asbestos litigation the longest-running, most expensive mass tort litigation in U.S. history affects your profession at any level, this is the course of study to attend this year.
