Upcoming Speaking Engagements

By James M. Beck and Mark Herrmann

The calm of Summer has ended, and that means we'll once again start trotting around the country to give talks. Here's the current line-up for the next three months:

October 2: The two of us will speak to the editors of the American Bar Association's many websites about effective blogging and drawing traffic to a site.

(Pssst: Pick a niche. Keep fresh content flowing. Only be pompous occasionally.

That's it! Now they can cancel the talk!)

October 8: Herrmann will give his hour-long "book talk" about The Curmudgeon's Guide to Practicing Law at the Chicago Bar Association. Here's a link to the details.

October 15: Bexis will speak on a panel at the Product Liability Advisory Council on developments on preemption and pleading.

October 29: Herrmann will participate in a webinar on MDL Litigation and Emerging State Coordination Procedures. Here's a link to the on-line brochure.

November 14: Herrmann will speak on recent developments in preemption at the annual meeting of the American Society of Pharmacy Law.

December 8: Herrmann will be a panelist on "Law in Cyberspace: Legal Blogging and the Courts" at a Northwestern University Judicial Education Program symposium. (That invitation to speak was prompted by our post on the ethics of ex parte blogging, available here for the curious.)

December 9: Herrmann will be a panelist on asserting a preemption defense in the post-Levine, post-Riegel world at the American Conference Institute's 14th Annual Drug and Medical Device Litigation Conference in New York City. Here's a link to the program brochure. (And another link to the discount available for readers of this blog.)

And then it'll be 2010.

'09 sure disappeared in a heartbeat, didn't it?
