Goren\, Attorney\, William D. Goren JD LLM LLC\nWilliam D. Goren\, Esq.\, of William D. Goren\, J.D.\, LL.M. LLC in Decatur\, GA\, has been dealing with the ADA as an Attorney since 1990. His law and consulting practice\, https://www.understandingtheada.com/\, as well as his blog\, Understanding the ADA\,  (a member of the ABA Top 100 for five consecutive years\, 2014-2018- there was no ABA 100 in 2019-2021)\, all focus on understanding the ADA so that the client understands what it means to comply with that law and related laws. In particular\, he provides consulting\, counseling\, representation\, and training services involving compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act\, Rehabilitation Act of 1973\, and related laws- such as the Air Carrier Access Act and the Fair Housing Act\, among others. Mr. Goren also brings a deep\, personal understanding of what it means to have a disability\, equipping him with exceptional insight on how the ADA actually works. He is deaf with a congenital bilateral hearing loss of 65–90+ decibels\, but functions entirely in the hearing world thanks to hearing aids\, Bluetooth technology\, and lip-reading. For reasons independent of his deafness\, he also uses voice dictation technology to access his computer. He is also a frequent presenter\, a trained mediator\, a FINRA arbitrator (Chairperson eligible)\, and an arbitrator on the CPR employment panel. Finally\, he is the author of Understanding the ADA\, now in its 4th edition (ABA 2013)\, and numerous other articles on the rights of persons with disabilities. He is a member of various committees of the American Bar Association and is also a member of: the Federal Bar Association (FBA) Diversity and Inclusion committee; the FBA’s Civil Rights committee and its Governing Board; FBA’s Civil Rights Amicus committee; and the Chair of the FBA’s Working Group on Disability Best Practices\, which formulated an accessibility manual for the FBA and its chapters. He is also a member of the Deaf and Hard of Hearing Bar Association and its lead for its Amicus committee. He has an A.B. from Vassar College\, a J.D. from University of San Diego School of Law\, and was one of the first in the entire country to receive the LL.M. in health law\, in his case from DePaul University College of Law. Interesting fact: He trained his miniature poodle to be a hearing dog while he practices virtually. \nModerated by:\nKatherine Earle Yanes\, Partner\, Kynes Markman & Felman\, P.A.; FBA Diversity and Inclusion Standing Committee Member\nKatherine Earle Yanes concentrates her practice in the areas of criminal defense\, appeals\, and postconviction relief.

Kovachevich\, United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida. Since 1999\, she has successfully represented defendants at the trial\, appellate\, and postconviction phases of criminal litigation in federal and state courts\, as well as in government investigations.

SUMMARY:Webinar: FLSA Overview and Recent Developments
DESCRIPTION:This presentation will provide an overview of the federal Fair Labor Standards Act\, addressing both the substantive components of the statute – the pay practices regulated\, the jobs exempt from the statute’s purview\, and the remedies available for violations – as well as the unique procedural issues that arise in cases litigated under the statute. Our speakers will discuss the procedural oddity of an FLSA collective action as distinct from a Rule 23 class action\, and the types of motions and issues arising in the collective action context. The standard for certifying a collective action and sending class notice is currently the subject of a split among the circuits that could be heading to the U.S. Supreme Court. This session will alert incoming judicial clerks to all the issues and nuances to be aware of in an FLSA case. \nPresented by the Judiciary Division’s Federal Judicial Law Clerk Committee and the Labor & Employment Law Section \n\nAbout the Presenters\nKevin D.

These new digital worlds promise to bring new avenues for product promotion and transactions\, but they also bring new challenges and obscurity to intellectual property law. NFT creators use trademarked images they claim to be “art” and profit from their sale\, but the owners of these trademarks contend that the use of these images does in fact constitute infringement. In a new age of globalized digital technology\, NFT and metaverse property disputes are relevant worldwide. \nThis panel will discuss how the use of trademarks in the art world is protected in the EU. Panelists will examine the implications of Hermes v. Rothschild and Nike v. StockX in trademark law worldwide. In house counsel will discuss trademark protection strategies and anti-counterfeiting considerations. \nSpeakers: \nEwa Abrams\, General Counsel\, Kering Americas\nJean-Baptiste Bourgeois\, Partner\, Rezac Law Group\nOlivera Medenica\, Partner\, Dunnington Bartholow & Miller LLP\nJean-Hyacinthe de Mitry\, Partner\, Gide Loyrette Nouel \nGreenwashing\, ESB focused Enforcement Actions\, and Sustainability in the EU: What Global Brands Must Know\n3:30pm – 4:30pm \nThe number of lawsuits concerning climate and environmental\, social\, and governance (ESG) issues has more than doubled globally since 2015. A growing sector of these lawsuits relate to “greenwashing\,” the practice of selling investments as more sustainable or environmentally friendly than they actually are. \nAgencies in both the U.S. and the E.U. have begun new ESG initiatives. In the U.S.\, the Securities and Exchange Commission’s new ESG task force began regulating in April of this year\, and in the E.U.\, legislators have taken similar regulatory action to prosecute “greenwashing.” \nEnvironmental concerns have also instigated a growing number of climate cases alleging over-reliance on “negative emission” or greenhouse gas removal to “offset” high-emission activities. Fashion and luxury retail brands are one of many industries being targeted with these climate and environmental suits. \nThis panel will examine the concept of greenwashing\, recent SEC investigations\, liability standards\, and comparisons to EU standards in relation to the fashion industry. \nSpeakers: \nJudith Bussé\, Counsel\, Edson\nMaria Vathis\, Of Counsel\, Bryan Cave Leighton Paisner LLP\nNicolas Walker\, Partner\, Reed Smith \nLicensing Success: Negotiation Strategies for a Better Brand Licensing Deal\n4:45 pm- 5:45pm \nThe process of negotiating a brand licensing deal requires skill and knowledge. Intellectual property lawyers and licensing professionals negotiate on behalf of brands seeking to lease trademarked or copyrighted materials. The role of negotiator is essential to procuring your client a better deal. \nAttendees will learn …\n• due diligence best practices\n• how to best understand the complexities of the law within the context of negotiations\n• brand strategies and goals\n• negotiation preparation and approaches\n• and many more tactics to achieve success in negotiations. \nIn this panel\, speakers will examine willing strategies to negotiate better deals for your clients. \nSpeakers: \nCéline Bondard\, Partner\, Cabinet Bondard\nSophie Divaret\, Commercial Legal Director\, PUIG\nAlexandra Varla\, Business Lawyer\, Founder: Tailored \n\nRegistration has Closed\n\nEarly Bird (prior to October 1\, 2022): 45 Euros\nGeneral Admission after October 1\, 2022: 55 Euros\nOn Site Registration: 65 Euros
