Last June 14, Lavery held a seminar on litigation risk management for corporate counsels at Le Centre Sheraton Montréal. Besides a plenary assembly and a lunch and learn session, this event – which is accredited by the Barreau du Québec in the context of Mandatory Continuing Education – offered no less than six workshops on a variety of themes: an overview of litigation management; inquiries and inspections; communicating with the media; litigation alternatives; injunctions and safeguard orders; and litigation allowances. The fact that 230 corporate counsels attended was a clear indication of the relevance of the seminar, offered as a courtesy of Lavery.
