Discussion topics include: Who has had the biggest impact on how you practice law? How and why? It can be someone who inspired you to be better or someone who made you realize you did not want to practice a certain way. For the more experienced attorneys, please share what you think distinguishes a good attorney from a great attorney, and the biggest mistakes you see young attorneys making. We would also love to hear some things you wish you had learned early on in your career.

Making a Trial Record to Preserve Reproductive Rights before the United States Supreme Court Webinar

November 12, 2020
5:00 – 6:30 pm

An airtight trial record is at least as important to a Supreme Court case as the art of appellate advocacy. This program will focus on the trial team’s strategy before the district court to build a record that tackled head on anticipated challenges from a hostile Fifth Circuit and a changing SCOTUS. Attendees will learn the considerations behind choosing the right lead plaintiff, witnesses, experts, documents, and venue in a test case of the constitutionality of a state law.

Speakers:

David Brown, Esq., Transgender Legal Defense Fund
Demme Doufekias, Esq. Morrison & Foerster
Ilene Jaroslaw, Esq., Phillps Nizer, LLP
Kathaleen Pittman, Hope Medical Group for Women
