Event Description
Deadline to Register: June 5, 2019
Join the MSBA’s Consumer Litigation section
for a lively panel discussion about the challenges our legal system poses for
our immigrant clients and colleagues. A culturally diverse panel of practicing
attorneys will discuss how lawyers can address biases their opposing party or
opposing counsel may have towards immigrant clients, how cultural differences
affect consumer transactions and litigation, and possible action items for
lawyers to better serve their immigrant clients and support their immigrant
colleagues. The engaging format of this CLE will allow participants to join in
the discussion and ask questions to our panelists.
Prior to the CLE program, the Consumer
Litigation Section will conduct their Annual Meeting & Elections.
Lunch is included with your
