Antitrust Litigation Course DVD
Coming soon to a desktop near you...
The Section of Antitrust is pleased to offer distance learning CLE opportunities to help you enhance your practice. Information will soon be available regarding the 2009 Antitrust Litigation Course DVD: Preparing and Trying an Antitrust Case.
The DVD features some of the leading antitrust trial lawyers brought together to demonstrate - on the basis of a fictitious merger of two companies in a high technology industry - the complex interplay of substance, strategy, negotiations, and remedies that is essential not only to merger litigation, but to antitrust litigation in general. As a result, antitrust trial practitioners as well as merger lawyers should be prepared to meet the challenges associated with trying to persuade the government not to sue, and trying the case when the government's concerns cannot be resolved in a manner acceptable to the client. Agenda details are available online - click here. DVDs will be on sale in November.
Please email Candace Mui (muic@staff.abanet.org) for detailed information.
