They are not intended to address particular practice areas such as entertainment law or patent law or job search strategies such as interviewing.Breakout session assignments will be completed shortly based on each individual's registration form. Once sessions are assigned we will not be able to accommodate changes. You will receive an e-mail with your assignments as well as a script covering potential topics for discussion. We ask that you review the script prior to the program in order to generate questions for the speakers.
