Marie Cossette, a partner at Lavery whose litigation practice focuses on public, administrative and disciplinary law, and who is responsible for the firm’s integrity practice, provided training at the 6th edition of the Colloque des dirigeants des ordres professionnels, which was held from September 2 to September 4, 2015, in Quebec City.
Ms. Cossette gave a workshop entitled “Votre Ordre vit une crise médiatique : sauriez-vous y faire face?” (Your Order is going through a crisis : would you know how to tackle it?), in which she presented various case studies to help define the notion of crisis management and a management plan, stages of crisis management, the role lawyers play as well as special measures to face it.
Organized jointly by the Quebec Interprofessional Council and the Quebec College of Physicians, this conference gathers more than 300 professionals to analyze common issues and find possible solutions.
