Litigating Discrimination & Harassment Claims

This program is a comprehensive update and overview of law and practice involving sexual harassment and discrimination claims in California. It’s not often that a single one-day seminar will give you both a procedural overview of the process but also substantive tips on how to write briefs, take and defend depositions, use expert testimony, make your case before a jury, and position your case so as to maximize the chances of obtaining a favorable outcome. This unique program will walk attendees through a case from beginning to end. This program is designed for attorneys and corporate counsel.
