This practical, case-driven program is designed for medical malpractice and personal injury attorneys seeking a clearer view into the earliest decision points that shape emergency care outcomes.
Emergency Room Decisions That Make-or-Break Medical Malpractice Cases
This practical, case-driven program is designed for medical malpractice and personal injury attorneys seeking a clearer view into the earliest decision points that shape emergency care outcomes. You will learn the early, often-overlooked decisions that shape emergency cases — from pre-hospital care and EMS routing to triage and early ER workflow.
Through real cases from an ER physician and nurse, it shows how protocols, staffing shortages, boarding, and post-pandemic pressures lead patients to the wrong facility, wrong team, or dangerous delays. It also clarifies who makes which decisions inside the ER, helping attorneys trace the chain of care, spot documentation gaps, and pinpoint when a delay or misclassification occurred. The program ends with a framework for selecting experts based on the specific role tied to each error, strengthening causation and negligence arguments.
Speakers:
Dr. Andrew Tisser, DO, MBA, Emergency Physician
Gina Marra, RN, LNC, LCSW, ER Nurse & Legal ConsultantModerated by:

Life insurance is a foundational planning tool in estate, tax, and business succession matters, yet existing policies are frequently overlooked as client circumstances change. This program uses a moderated, interview-style discussion to examine the legal and planning implications of life insurance valuation, longevity risk, and secondary market considerations.
Life Settlements and Life Insurance Valuation Solutions for Estate and Tax Professionals
Life insurance is a foundational planning tool in estate, tax, and business succession matters, yet existing policies are frequently overlooked as client circumstances change. Like other property, life insurance assets can be independently valued to support fiduciaries who advise individuals, families, and business owners.
This program uses a moderated, interview-style discussion to examine the legal and planning implications of life insurance valuation, longevity risk, and secondary market considerations. Attendees will gain insight into how fair market value analysis and life settlement best practices can support informed planning recommendations, enhance interdisciplinary collaboration, and help mitigate liability and reputational risk. The discussion focuses on issue identification, documentation considerations, and interdisciplinary coordination, rather than product selection or implementation.
Attorneys will learn the strategic importance of identifying and valuing existing life insurance assets in estate and business succession planning, how and when those policies may be monetized to support evolving client objectives, and the role independent valuation and best practices play in mitigating liability and reputational risk.
Speaker:
Jamie L. Mendelsohn, Executive Vice President, Ashar GroupAs Executive Vice President, Jamie is the go-to resource for helping advanced planners and fiduciaries integrate the life settlement solution into their comprehensive planning process. She spends much of her time educating the financial services community at conferences, estate planning councils, and wealth management firms nationwide.
Jamie earned her bachelor’s and master’s degrees from the University of Florida, where she was a member of the Alpha Delta Pi sorority. She is a proud member of Women in Insurance and Financial Services. Jamie dedicates much of her time and energy to the Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation, where she serves on the board mentoring patients and families. She lives in Central Florida and enjoys spending time with family and friends, fishing, and traveling.

And – as important – equipped to identify and mitigate the challenges of practicing law on too little sleep.
Goodnight Zoom: Nighttime Routines & Daytime Strategies for the Under Slept and Overworked
Sleep is an essential part of well-being, with a lack of sleep being associated with decreased cognitive functioning, physical health, and productivity, as well as an increase in symptoms of anxiety, stress, and depression. Despite its critical role, far too many people get far too little sleep.
Join the CBA’s Featured Well-Being Coach, Jonathan Beitner, and explore sleep’s role in maintaining our well-being and productivity. Leave with strategies to get more and higher quality sleep.

Rest better when you can; feel better (and work better) even when you can’t.
At the end of this program, attendees will be able to:
- Better understand and explain how sleep supports well-being and how lack of sleep impacts our cognitive and physiological processes as humans.
- Practice routines and techniques to get more/better sleep and teach these techniques to others.
- Employ strategies to minimize the negative effects of not getting enough sleep and teach these techniques to others.Speaker: Jonathan Beitner is the Founder of Beitner Coaching & Consulting.

He helps individuals identify and achieve their goals, and works with firms, law schools, and Fortune 500 companies to help their lawyers, students, and staff be more productive, happier, and healthier through individual coaching and evidence-based group programming.

The Three Binders Every Litigator Needs: Organizing for Peak Trial Performance
Even in an age of sophisticated legal tech, top trial teams still rely on a simple but powerful tool: the binder. This session shows how well-structured digital or physical binders can transform case prep and boost confidence in the courtroom.
Attendees will learn to:
• Build and adapt working, argument, and trial binders
• Organize and maintain binders as living, strategic tools
• Use binders to improve collaboration and team prep
• Apply binder principles to create custom case strategiesSpeaker:
Sam Davidoff is the CEO & Founder of Align, a digital binder platform for attorneys. Before launching Align, Sam was a partner at Williams & Connolly LLP, where he spent nearly 20 years handling complex litigation, white-collar defense, congressional investigations, commercial disputes, and IP litigation. Although he now leads a digital binder company, this session is entirely product-agnostic and focused on practical strategies that apply to any format—digital or paper.To confirm you are ready to participate in an on demand webcast, please take the browser test here: http://eventcenter.commpartner...
