Please join us for our 2015 Product Liability Workshop. We have presented these workshops for over 20 years and more than 750 companies have sent employees to this program.

We use a real-world case study that spans a product’s entire litigation cycle, from initial design and testing to a post-accident courtroom showdown. This year, as usual, will feature a new product. Topics covered include product liability litigation pitfalls, discovery lessons learned, dealing with adverse expert testimony, and tactics used against corporate defendants in jury trials. We use materials from actual cases, including depositions, cross-examinations, smoking gun e-mail and text messages, and the use of product website and sales materials in court, in addition to offering a refresher on product liability basics. The focus is on how employees can work better, on a day-to-day basis, to reduce product liability exposure. These workshops are very well-regarded, with more than one former attendee has described it as “One of the best classes I’ve ever attended.”

The 2015 workshop will be an intensive, one-day program held in our downtown Seattle office. A continental breakfast and lunch will be provided, and we hope you will stay for the cocktail reception.
