We’re in the thick of planning our 2020 Annual Conference next month in Dallas, and I’m personally very excited about our CCO Mini-Summit and several Annual Conference sessions on the hot topic of nuclear verdicts.

Just like our Litigation Management Symposium last year, our focus on the nuclear verdict topic and the formation of a working group to tackle education on this issue was the idea brought to us by our membership.

We’re listening—just check out this issue’s cover—and if there are other topics you’d like to see us address, let me know.

While the Annual Conference will once again be a stellar event, we recognize not everyone is able to attend that event (in fact, there’s a waiting list for our outside counsel members). In addition to our other larger conferences throughout the year, don’t forget about your Local Chapter.

We have more than 50 Local Chapters in many states across the country. You can find a complete map and listing on the CLM website under “Our Network.” One of the many great things about our Local Chapters is that there is no additional fee to join them. If you belong to the CLM, you are automatically a member of your Local Chapter.
