"Using AI and Staying Out of Trouble While Using It”
Frank Ramos, Partner, Goldberg Segalla
Tuesday, August 25, 2026
12:00 PM - 1:00 PM
Frank will discuss how law firms can incorporate AI in every aspect of their practice, ethically, appropriately, and effectively to avoid sanctions, client issues, and concerns.
“Intellectual Property Basics for Non-IP Practitioners”
Tripp Watson, Entrepreneur Attorney, Intellectual Property Consulting
Wednesday, August 26, 2026
12:00 PM - 1:00 PM
You don't need to be an IP lawyer to get burned by IP issues. A contracts attorney who misses a trade secret carve-out. A litigator who doesn't spot a trademark claim buried in a business dispute. IP problems don't stay in their lane, and neither should your knowledge of them.
Tripp Watson of Intellectual Property Consulting will walk you through the common pitfalls that non-IP attorneys run into in your daily practice.
This CLE delivers a fast, practical overview of the five pillars of IP law: patents, trademarks, copyrights, trade secrets, and rights of publicity. You'll leave knowing what each protects, how long it lasts, and when to call in a specialist before your client's exposure becomes your malpractice claim.
"Management Services Organizations, Non-Lawyer Capital, Rule 5.4, and the MSO Workaround"
Douglas Chandler, Attorney, Chandler Law
Thursday, August 27, 2026
12:00 PM - 1:00 PM
In 47 states, non-lawyers are prohibited from owning law firms under ABA Model Rule of Professional Conduct 5.4. Despite ongoing debate, and Arizona's outright removal of the restriction, the ban remains in most jurisdictions. Management Services Organizations (MSOs) have emerged as a prominent workaround enabling non-lawyer capital and management expertise to enter the legal market in a potentially compliant way. Learn the legal landscape for this emerging structure.
