STAFF COUNSEL COMMITTEE |
Past Presentations
Date: March 25 – 26, 2008 Welcome to Chicago, and to the TIPS Staff Counsel CLE for 2008. Our last CLE here was a great success. We use a proven format with a first day for the front-line litigators and a second, half-day, with management issues. Tuesday starts off with a trial judge well known for his "Art of Persuasion"
CLE presentations: The Honorable Mark Drummond. A panel of three expert witnesses follows, with tips
on cross-examining experts. After lunch, you’re treated to none other than Terence F. MacCarthy,
one of the most riveting cross-examination experts and CLE speakers today.
See Picture Tuesday continues with a unique speaker—Diane Wyzga. She's the only R.N., J.D.
professionally-trained storyteller and former law professor who trains lawyers. Diane will interactively
work with us to make interesting trial stories of our own fact problems using the actual bad facts as
we sometimes get from Claims. Wednesday's program includes two panels of staff attorneys, regional, and corporate
managers, and a legal recruiter. The first addresses the best ways to communicate with Claims. The
second discusses how to conduct an interview, how to handle discipline, and how best to address staff
conflicts. All of this and Chicago, too! Sign up today and we look forward to seeing you there.
