By clicking the following link www.regonline.com/2012primerusconsumerlawinstitutewinterconference The 2012 Primerus Consumer Law Institute (PCLI) Winter Conference will take place at the San Juan Marriott Resort & Stellaris Casino – San Juan, Puerto Rico, on February 1-5, 2012. YOU WON’T WANT TO MISS THIS EVENT! WHY YOU SHOULD ATTEND Your Registration Includes: The opportunity to meet and network with your Primerus Peers A forum to create long-lasting friendships Substantive Programming and Continuing Legal Education Credits (pending approval) Special Programming with a panel of Puerto Rican Attorneys The opportunity to visit the beautiful city of San Juan, Puerto Rico World Class Accommodations Enjoyable Leisure Activities Pool Party with Open Bar Catamaran Cruise and Snorkeling Adventure KEYNOTE SPEAKER JOSHUA KARTON, president of the Santa Monica, California firm Communication Arts for the Professional, specializes in bringing the personal communication techniques from theatre/film/television to the art of trial advocacy. As the former Director of Education and co-creator of the Applied Theatre Techniques Workshops™, he developed its unique step-by-step system for transforming courtroom presentation into persuasion, which trained over 8,000 attorneys nationwide. He designs and conducts training programs for private firms, law schools, CLE programs, as well as providing individual case consultations. He is the director of the Effective Courtroom Communication Training for the Judge Advocate General's Corps, where his work culminated in the preparation of the winning argument to the US Supreme Court in Hamdan v. Rumsfeld. PROGRAM OVERVIEW Communication Arts for the Professional applies skills of working theatre artists – actors, directors, and writers – to the communication needs of the legal profession. While judges and jurors require and respect the advocate's presentation of evidence and knowledge of the law, what moves them is the live human event that the advocate creates in the courtroom. What are the techniques -- neither gimmicks nor tricks -- that make litigation come alive off the legal pad? What are the actual communication dynamics of live storytelling, interviewing, examining, proving, and persuading? CAP trains advocates to "write" not merely for what will be read, but for what must be spoken . . . and then heard, felt, and believed. CAP equips litigators in vocal range and inflection, congruent body language, storytelling structure and delivery skills, mechanics for controlling stage fright, and the proper role of emotion in the courtroom.

Brian A. Comer is a litigator with Collins & Lacy, P.C. in Columbia, South Carolina, where he practices in both products liability and professional liability  law. Brian has extensive experience in products liability law, including serving as national coordinating counsel for a major pharmaceutical manufacturer in mass tort multi-district litigation.  Brian also authors a blog entitled "The South Carolina Products Liability Law Blog" at http://scproductsliabilitylaw.blogspot.com. Brian will speak on exceptions to the duty to warn relating to food products, including foods associated with common allergies and substances consumed over a long period of time.  This discussion will include analysis of Restatement (Second) of Torts Section 402A, comment j, and the Food Allergen Labeling and Consumer Act that went into effect in 2006.  Brian will also discuss the exception to the duty to warn for open and obvious risks that should be "common sense" to a product user, without the need for any warning about these types of dangers.  Brian will provide examples of this exception in case law, and he will also discuss how new technologies may impact this exception in the future (i.e., designs that can prevent open and obvious risks so that if they are omitted, a manufacturer may still be liable).   Rick Quinlivan is a trial attorney based in Southern California with significant trial experience in product liability cases.  He is national counsel for a product manufacturer and has been lead counsel in trials in several states. Rick will be opening the presentation with a brief overview of the duty to warn as it applies to products generally. He will discuss the reasons warnings are necessary and to whom the duty to warn extends. He will also address the methods used by plaintiffs to establish failure to warn claims. Rick will conclude with a synopsis of issues concerning the post-sale duty to warn.     John R. Brydon is a trial lawyer and a founding principal at Brydon Hugo & Parker in San Francisco, California.  He has represented numerous fortune 500 corporations in products liability trials.  John is certified in civil trial advocacy by the National Board of Trial Advocacy; a member of the American Board of Trial Advocates and also a Diplomate of the Litigation Counsel of America. He will speak on exceptions to the duty to the failure to warn as it relates to recent developments in the application of the sophisticated user doctrine and the corollary concept of the learnedintermediary.  This will include not only a discussion of the doctrines as they have evolved in pharmaceutical litigation but the expansion of those doctrines in mass tort trials.  He will also discuss the government contractor defense and the circumstances under which defendants that supply products to the government and military may be relieved from the duty to warn. John hastried cases to verdict in which these defenses have been litigated and he has practical trial experience and insights into presenting these issues to juries.     REGISTER NOW!

This is a "Not To Be Missed" Event! REGISTER NOW! Please CLICK HERE to view the 2011 Primerus Annual Conference Agenda. Keynote Speaker, Bob Weiss (Alyn-Weiss & Associates; Lakewood, CO) who has over 20 years of experience assisting lawyers with marketing strategies and personal business development, will be speaking on topics concerning two areas of marketing: 5 New Studies: Surprising Data Affecting Rates, Profitability, Firm Marketing, and What You Should do in Response Landmark studies over the past 24 months by the American Bar Association's Standing Committee on the Delivery of Legal Services, the Legal Sales and Service Organization, CT TyMetrix, Stanford University, the publishers of The American Lawyer and others have finally confirmed with data some long-held beliefs about how the general public, business owners, C-level executives and in-house counsel find and vet lawyers. However, the studies also reveal recent dramatic shifts in retention patterns and shatter several commonly-held beliefs about individual lawyer business development and overall firm marketing activities. Best Practices: Primerus' Exclusive Marketing Boot Camp For Member Firms Having an effective, written, measurable, budgeted strategic marketing plan is something every law firm wants.  However, surveys reveal only about 25% of firms ever convene their partners to actually create such a marketing plan.  Those same studies also reveal that firms with marketing plans report greater satisfaction and less controversy over marketing results and expenditures.  This is true for defense, corporate, transactional and plaintiff practices. Recognizing this, Primerus has teamed up with one of the country's leading marketing consultancies and developed a unique, cost-effective marketing process for member firms.  Compared to engaging local or national marketing consultants directly, participating Primerus firms will save thousands of dollars. The process includes a full evaluation of your firm's current marketing efforts and expenditures, including online strategy and tactics, a comparison of them to the tactical mix seen in local competitors, and identification of the best marketing practices seen at firms similar to yours nationally.   As well, your firm will be given names and costs for vendors, local and vetted where possible and appropriate, so your firm can improve its business development and have the option of keeping most of your marketing spend in your hometown. How your firm can participate in this program, available exclusively to Primerus members, will be explained in a 60-minute presentation.  Firms that elect to participate in this program, for which there will be only a limited number of openings, will receive ongoing support to help ensure recommendations and options provided can be implemented on time and within budget. Bob's presentations are sure to provide you with a new perspective with some of your long-held strategy, tactics, and budgeting. REGISTER NOW!

Featured Speaker, Pippa Blakemore, Strategic Business Partner with The PEP Partnership LLP (Reading, England) will discuss the following marketing strategies: PIF Approach to Networking: Plan- Implementation- Follow-up Networking successfully is an essential skill for today's attorneys to win work and to make the most of being a member of Primerus.  Pippa Blakemore's three step, P-I-F approach to networking for Primerus lawyers will enable you  make the most of every networking opportunity; develop stronger and deeper relationships with fellow members of Primerus and potential clients and overcome any reservations you may have about networking.  The objective is to make it productive and enjoyable.Pippa's participative workshop will include such tips as:  identifying who would like to talk to you at events and conferences; how to remember people's names; what to say after you have said: "Hello"; how to finish a conversation without appearing rude and how to follow-up so that people look forward to hearing from you. Win More Work From Current Clients: The RAINBOW Strategy It costs up to ten times more to win work from a new client than from a current client. Therefore, it is important to treat every client of yours as if it is your first day of working for them,  to ensure that they keep giving you work and to keep the competition at bay.  Every day you are not looking after your client, your competition will be trying to win them over.  Pippa Blakemore's RAINBOW strategy provides a structured way of helping you to ensure that you continue to win more work from current clients.  Pippa will advise you on how to turn your contacts into clients; will give you tips on the four things which you need to do for your clients; will help you to ensure clients read your advice; tell you the one key question which will help you to strengthen and deepen your relationship and give tips on how to maintain effective communication, even when your clients are not giving you work. Your commitment and enthusiasm for their work needs to be maintained at this high standard throughout your relationship and implementing the RAINBOW strategy will help you to do this. Join Pippa for these networking and business development sessions. REGISTER NOW! Please CLICK HERE to view the 2011 Primerus Annual Conference Agenda.
