Interest meaningfully took off during the November 2024 presidential election and culminated most recently with an eye-popping $4.8 billion in trading volume this February in the week leading up to Superbowl LX. Today, this activity centers around the Polymarket and Kalshi platforms. New entrants are coming fast and furiously, from new start-ups to incumbents in financial services and gaming. Prediction market platforms, including Polymarket and Kalshi, deploy new technologies to make new types of markets. They take different and new approaches in how and to whom trading is offered. They challenge incumbents ranging from traditional futures markets to gaming services. They also change the way information is shared and understood—the current CFTC Chair has referred to these as “information markets.” And they raise new and interesting legal and regulatory questions, many of which result in headlines of their own.This briefing brings together the leading experts in prediction markets in the United States, including the head lawyers at Polymarket and Kalshi, together with leading outside counsel. The panel will explain how these markets work and will dive into current legal and regulatory issues, which have drawn the attention of policy-markets, regulators, and competitors worldwide.

As demand for services continues to outpace available resources, these tools offer meaningful opportunities to improve efficiency, consistency, and reach. At the same time, they require thoughtful application of existing professional responsibility rules, including duties of competence, confidentiality, supervision, transparency, and accountability.This one-hour briefing examines legal ethics through two contrasting but complementary AI use cases that reflect different development approaches and levels of technical complexity. The first use case focuses on an operational AI agent built using low-code and no-code tools to support pro bono program administration, including intake routing, scheduling, volunteer coordination, and internal workflows. The second explores a client-facing asylum support tool developed through full, pro-code engineering and a formal responsible AI lifecycle.The session highlights how ethical responsibilities scale based on how AI is built, deployed, and integrated into legal services. Across both examples, attorneys play a critical role not only as end users, but as creators, subject-matter experts, user testers, and key influencers in product design and governance. The briefing underscores why lawyer involvement is essential at every stage, from problem definition and system design to testing, oversight, and continuous improvement, particularly in pro bono and access to justice contexts.

Regulators, investors, and other stakeholders are increasingly focused on how companies are using AI and managing the risks and opportunities it presents. Understanding what, when, and how to disclose AI-related information is now a critical issue for legal, compliance, and investor relations teams alike. And managing the complex dynamics associated with AI is vital for boards of directors and senior management.  This program will explore the evolving regulatory expectations, litigation risks, and best practices for transparent and accurate disclosure and governance around AI.

With growing enforcement, it is important for financial institutions and their advisors to understand the regulatory framework to develop an effective compliance program. This program provides an introduction to the essential compliance requirements of the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA)/Anti-Money Laundering (AML)/ Countering Financial Terrorism (CFT) regulatory framework. It discusses record-keeping and reporting obligations, the regulatory actors, and the potential consequences for non-compliance. This program also reviews recent updates and enforcement actions of note to industry players.

Record dry powder and an aging portfolio of assets are colliding with demands from limited partners for exits and returns of capital. As realization opportunities reopen (including IPOs, sponsor-to-sponsor sales and continuation vehicles), private equity firms enter 2026 with renewed optimism. The focus of this One-Hour Briefing will be analyzing the factors that shaped 2025 results and the prospects for 2026 and translating those themes into practical expectations for deal activity, terms and risk allocation for the rest of the year.

It’s not. Networking is an interpersonal activity built around sharing knowledge and connections with colleagues, referral sources, clients, family and friends. It is an intentional activity in the sense that it presumes as a lawyer you have a professional growth plan with goals, target prospects, and key strategies. Within that plan, lawyer networking becomes a key tactic linking your aspirations with others. When lawyers join groups they need to decide if they want to focus on meeting other lawyers or referral sources or potential clients. This decision will impact the kind of groups they join. Groups offer a wide variety of opportunities to meet people of interest, get to know them and form authentic relationships that lead to shared opportunities for career growth, client work and professional knowledge-sharing.In this one-hour briefing we will show you how to find comfortable, lawyer-friendly, networking havens where you can communicate with others who share your interests. We will assume that you have already set your goals and strategic plan. Our focus will be on how groups and events can provide a comfortable, efficient way to network and, most importantly, how to showcase both yourself and your legal skills by building conversations that lead to professional connections and client relationships.

How do we ensure transparency in algorithmic decision-making? What safeguards are needed to protect due process and prevent bias? And how can we preserve the human judgment that lies at the heart of our legal system? How do we address issues, such as hallucinations, digital divides, data privacy, and the unauthorized practice of law? Join us as we review the just-released report from the New York State Bar Association’s President’s Committee on Access to Justice and consider these and other questions.

While multiple statutes provide authority for the President to impose tariffs, the Administration has relied heavily on the International Economic Emergency Powers Act (IEEPA) as the authority for most of its tariffs, in particular, as the basis for “reciprocal” tariffs it has imposed against countries around the world and for the negotiating leverage it has used to secure trade deals with many of those countries. On February 20, 2026, the Supreme Court ruled that IEEPA does not authorize the President to impose tariffs. This decision raises questions of what happens to the over $135 billion in IEEPA tariffs collected, what costs and obligations face importers following this decision, and what additional steps the Administration might take in response. To help guide lawyers advising clients navigating this changing trade policy landscape, this panel will discuss the Supreme Court decision in more detail and the implications of this decision for the Administration’s use of tariffs as a policy tool going forward, for the trade deals it has concluded, and for parties seeking refunds of tariffs paid on imports over the past year.  Practising Law Institute 1177 Avenue of the Americas New York NY 10036 USA (800)260-4PLI info@pli.edu 460972 460972 104 G5730 1:01:32 https://www.pli.edu/programs/new-york-cplr-update-2026-statute-of-limitations/457700?tCode=WTC5_RSS01 Litigation Civil procedure Practice skills (Litigation) Pre-trial procedure Probably the most important, and most complex, issue in civil practice is the statute of limitations. Because the Courts lack discretion to extend the time within which an action may be commenced [CPLR 201], the issue is one of law, and always potentially draconian. We will be discussing several important recent cases dealing with the statute of limitations for: professional and medical malpractice, breach of contract - particularly with respect to mortgage foreclosures, the Child Victims Act, and others. We will also talk about recent cases dealing with the ways the statute may be avoided - such as by the relation back doctrine and tolls.

Bauman. Long arm jurisdiction has also seen some significant developments, particularly with respect to the scope of CPLR 302(a)(3), and the definition of "arising from." All of these will be discussed during this session. And then our attention will turn to recent cases - and a very significant statutory amendment - dealing with motion practice.

Heavy-handed policies and blunt deletion rules often backfire, resulting in ‘underground archiving’ where employees move information into unmanaged and insecure locations to avoid automated disposition, stymying eDiscovery and other compliance processes. The result is less control, higher risk, and even lower trust in legal and compliance programs.   Practising Law Institute 1177 Avenue of the Americas New York NY 10036 USA (800)260-4PLI info@pli.edu 457184 457184 104 G5648 1:02:36 https://www.pli.edu/programs/health-care-alert-preparing-for-compliance-with-amended-42-c.f.r.-part-2/458126?tCode=WTC5_RSS01 Cybersecurity and data protection Regulation, compliance, and enforcement (Cybersecurity and data protection) Health care Regulation, compliance, and enforcement (Health care) Regulation, compliance, and enforcement (Technology) In February 2024, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services issued a final rule amending 42 C.F.R. Part 2 to implement statutory changes enacted by Section 3221 of the CARES Act. The amended regulations significantly revise how substance use disorder treatment records may be used and disclosed, including for treatment, payment, and health care operations, and introduce new patient rights, notice requirements, breach notification obligations, and enforcement mechanisms. Health care organizations that create, receive, maintain, or transmit Part 2 records, including HIPAA covered entities and business associates, must understand their compliance obligations and operational impacts.The amended 42 C.F.R. Part 2 rule became effective on April 16, 2024, with a compliance date of February 16, 2026. Beginning February 16, 2026, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office for Civil Rights will enforce the amended Part 2 regulations. The final rule aligns key aspects of Part 2 with the HIPAA Privacy, Security, and Breach Notification Rules, while preserving Part 2’s heightened confidentiality protections for substance use disorder records.This program provides a practical overview of the amended 42 C.F.R. Part 2 requirements, highlights key areas of regulatory change, and outlines concrete compliance steps organizations should be taking now to prepare for enforcement.

Yet many people fleeing persecution are forced to leave their home countries abruptly, without the time, resources, or safety needed to gather critical documents. Once in the U.S., obtaining records from abroad—specifically from Mexico and Central America—can be complex, slow, and legally challenging.This program explores the practical and legal realities of transnational evidence collection in protection cases. It is designed to equip advocates with concrete tools to obtain civil registry documents, criminal and police records, medical files, and sworn statements, as well as to arrange remote testimony from foreign witnesses. Emphasis is placed on navigating country-specific procedures, avoiding common evidentiary pitfalls, and ensuring that evidence gathered abroad is legally sound and usable in U.S. proceedings.

But in many organizations, attorneys are often left on their own to figure out how to build their teams, resulting in inconsistent and haphazard management that makes even the best performers feel like cogs in a machine. Many senior leaders view this as inevitable, writing off high attrition as a cost of doing business.  The best lawyers see the world differently. In this one-hour briefing, Ben Sachs, a law professor, consultant, and author of the best-selling management book for lawyers, “All Rise: Practical Tools for Building High-Performance Legal Teams,” will explain how attorneys can catapult their careers by distinguishing themselves not merely through their legal work but their ability to lead. Leveraging his experience across law and business, Ben Sachs will unpack the science of great teams, point out best practices across industries, and provide a practical roadmap tailored to attorneys. No matter your tenure—from junior associates “managing up” to senior partners managing entire practice groups—these tools will help you unlock a more collaborative, more productive, higher-retention team.

We will start by exploring how to cut through the “digital whiplash” of mixed GenAI messages—“GenAI will save you, GenAI will replace you, GenAI will erode thinking, GenAI will kill the billable hour, GenAI will kill the entry-level job market”—and instead craft intentional, future-ready legal careers. We will identify sources of hesitation toward integrating GenAI into our lawyering workflows, and consider strategies for embracing an experimental mindset. We will discuss how legal professionals can cultivate and preserve authentic lawyer identities while ethically engaging with GenAI tools. Drawing on the medical profession’s “See One, Do One, Teach One” training model, we will probe how to ground our GenAI usage in our foundational experience performing lawyering tasks the “traditional” way. We will examine (1) when cognitive friction is more important than streamlining lawyering tasks through GenAI tool usage, and (2) how to distinguish purposeful “grunt work” from the purposeless (i.e., potentially outsourceable to GenAI tools). Finally, we will consider potential new GenAI-infused legal roles, and demonstrate how job-crafting and upskilling can expand lawyers’ professional opportunities. Grounded in principles of professional identity formation and human flourishing, this program invites legal professionals to move beyond GenAI hype, reseize agency, and intentionally shape smart, soulful, sustainable law practices.

Combined with a never-receding flood of lawsuits blaming the success of attackers on alleged failures by providers of security technologies, services, or policies, companies should be as interested as ever in finding ways to mitigate their tort liability through the SAFETY Act. And indeed, companies should be paying particular attention to how the SAFETY Act can be used to limit or even eliminate tort liability as they deploy new and/or innovative security tools and programs.  Our panel will provide a brief overview of how the SAFETY Act works followed by a more in-depth discussion of how companies can use the law to mitigate tort liability exposure as they deploy security tools, services, and policies to protect vital sectors of the economy.

Even though the relative value of one cent declined to the point that many would forego picking pennies up from the street, the concept of a cent remains a key part of many commercial transactions. From the pricing of retail gasoline to the calculation of interest and loan amortization, the base 10 nature of the modern financial system makes it impossible to avoid transfers involving cents.  In May 2025, the U.S. Treasury announced that the U.S. Mint would cease producing physical pennies in the near future, which occurred in November 2025. In September 2025, the Federal Reserve Banks announced that the winddown in production had caused the inventory of pennies at certain distribution points to be exhausted. Eventually, the inventory at all distribution points is expected to be fully depleted, at which point banks and credit unions will be unable to obtain pennies. In turn, companies that rely on depository institutions for the coinage required by commerce, such as to make change at points of sale, will be unable to obtain pennies. In the absence of legislation, the official, financial and commercial sectors have been left to their creativity to implement the phase-out of the penny. This panel will discuss the legal issues associated with the end of the physical penny and explore how lawyers can advise clients on adapting their businesses for this change.  Practising Law Institute 1177 Avenue of the Americas New York NY 10036 USA (800)260-4PLI info@pli.edu 456566 456566 104 G5643 1:01:15 https://www.pli.edu/programs/nonprofit-involvement-in-elections-what-to-look-for-in-2026/456089?tCode=WTC5_RSS01 Political activity law Campaign finance Corporate political activity Regulation, compliance, and enforcement (Political activity law) Nonprofit organizations Nonprofits have become vital participants in elections, praised for nonpartisanship by some and derided as vehicles for “dark money” by others. With the 2026 midterm elections rapidly approaching, nonprofit organizations will again be involved in a range of election-related activities. As a result, it is crucial that nonprofit organizations—including 501(c)(3), 501(c)(4), and 501(c)(6) groups—and corporate donors understand the laws governing participation in advocacy and politics. Federal tax laws, combined with frequently-evolving federal, state, and local campaign finance laws, present a myriad of potential compliance issues for nonprofit organizations engaging in elections, as well as for their corporate donors.   In this One-Hour Briefing, faculty will discuss key challenges that arise when nonprofits get involved in politics and share how such organizations, donors, and their corporate partners can avoid the most common pitfalls.   Practising Law Institute 1177 Avenue of the Americas New York NY 10036 USA (800)260-4PLI info@pli.edu 456089 456089 104 G5637 1:01:30 https://www.pli.edu/programs/health-care-ma-trends-risks-and-whats-ahead/455487?tCode=WTC5_RSS01 Corporate law Mergers and acquisitions Health care Regulation, compliance, and enforcement (Health care) Information technology (Health care) While 2025 saw a significant jump in healthcare M&A deal value, as buyers focused on strategic, high-quality assets, overall deal count remained steady from 2024. Key trends and drivers of activity included strong interest in healthtech and AI-enabled platforms, outpatient care models, and behavioral health.

Grassley warned that if the federal judiciary doesn’t fix this issue, Congress will step in. After years of attorneys being called out by judges, and in some cases sanctioned, for filing pleadings with fake citations and quotes resulting from AI hallucinations, seeing similar errors by the judiciary raises concerns about the legal profession’s lack of understanding of AI and questions about what needs to be done to remedy this ongoing problem.

While generative AI risks have been largely analyzed under existing regulations around IP, substantiation, privacy, and disclosures, agentic AI raises new questions: Can an AI agent bind consumers to contracts or accidental purchases? What happens when an AI tool, acting autonomously and without human input, generates misleading claims, favors paid partners without disclosure, or engages in potentially discriminatory practices?

At the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board (TTAB), surveys are increasingly central to proving or challenging claims involving genericness, secondary meaning, and likelihood of confusion. In federal courts, judges continue to refine expectations around methodological reliability, universe selection, controls, and expert testimony under Daubert. At the same time, rapid advances in artificial intelligence are beginning to reshape how surveys are designed, tested, and evaluated. AI-driven tools are improving questionnaire design, open-ended coding, and data-quality monitoring. There is also early exploration of “synthetic respondents,” a development that, while still nascent, raises important questions about how survey evidence may evolve in the years ahead. Drawing on his 25-year career as a trademark litigator and survey expert, J. Michael Keyes will deliver practical, case-driven insights on how surveys are designed, challenged, and evaluated today. This fast-moving session highlights what practitioners need to know now.

On the surface, it looks like dedication and commitment to clients, but in reality, it quietly fuels procrastination, the feeling of being overwhelmed, and people-pleasing. And if you think perfectionism isn’t your issue, it may be hiding in plain sight. From agonizing over discovery motions, redlining agreements line by line, rewriting client emails multiple times, or preparing deposition summaries and oral arguments as if every question must be anticipated, these impossibly high standards are praised, expected, and deeply ingrained. But behind the scenes, perfectionism takes a significant toll: it drains time, undermines confidence, delays progress, and threatens lawyer well-being.Here’s the reality: perfectionism isn’t the same as excellence. Excellence motivates and inspires. Perfectionism traps lawyers in cycles of second-guessing, overwork, and fear of failure. It convinces us that “good enough” is unacceptable—when, in fact, “good enough” often meets and even exceeds professional standards.The trickiest part? Many attorneys don’t recognize perfectionism as the culprit. We label it “being thorough,” “dedicated,” or “driven.” Yet it shows up in countless subtle ways: redoing time entries because billing descriptions don’t feel detailed enough, staying online late at night to be the “always available” teammate, over-preparing for client presentations, or delaying business development outreach until every detail is perfect. For litigators, it might mean stalling on drafting briefs or discovery responses out of fear they’re not airtight. For transactional lawyers, it might show up as spending hours addressing every possible “what if” in a contract. For in-house counsel, it may be over-preparing board decks or responding instantly to every business inquiry. In this Briefing, we’ll explore how perfectionism impacts both the substantive practice of law and the business of law. We’ll examine its hidden costs on client service, and professional growth. Most importantly, we’ll provide practical tools to recognize when “good enough” truly is enough, so lawyers can maintain excellence, uphold ethical obligations, and preserve their well-being in the process.

The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) reported numerous settlements and judgments from cases involving multiple industries, and as a result the government has collected nearly $78 billion since 1986—the year the whistleblower provisions of the FCA were strengthened. This presentation will provide an overview of the FCA and its elements, recent enforcement trends, and noteworthy FCA decisions from courts across the country. For example, in 2025, the government announced its intent to use the FCA to target new enforcement areas, such as customs fraud and illegal discrimination; Congress enacted a new law that significantly expands the types of false claims federal agencies can pursue administratively; and courts issued key rulings that shed light on whether reimbursement requests for a government program administered by a private corporation constitute “claims,” what requirements the government must satisfy to move to dismiss an FCA case over a relator’s objection, and when an FCA claim “results from” a kickback violation, among other issues.

Whether in-person or virtual, it also gives practitioners a chance to demonstrate credibility and expertise within a given practice area to a particular target audience. Yet, if not designed carefully, such content can fall flat, or worse: may create unintentional attorney-client relationships; run afoul of solicitation, advertising or other Bar rules; or spread unreliable information that can harm those relying on it. In this One-Hour Briefing, we discuss the basics of designing effective legal information presentations, from in-person workshops to social media content. Attorney Maria E.

With the escalating volume of electronic records in legal operations, establishing precise policies and procedures for managing documents, emails, and structured data is imperative.Legal firms and practitioners often face challenges with managing large volumes of records, posing critical questions: How can automation alleviate the workload while ensuring regulatory compliance? Once protocols, systems, and tools are in place, how can we effectively encourage legal departments and individual attorneys to let go of their habit of hoarding documents? Moreover, how can we sustain a consistent and compliant approach across the law firm, especially when dealing with limited resources? By adopting the right strategies, adhering to your records policies and schedules becomes not only feasible but also adds value to the legal practice.

Over the next 18 months, we will see a veritable alphabet soup of federal regulators implement the GENIUS Act through notice-and-comment rulemakings. During that time, banks, fintechs, and other entrepreneurs will be building and expanding stablecoin businesses across the crypto ecosystem. They will need new policies, procedures, and processes to manage the risks of these businesses. Some will be mostly legal in nature, others accounting-focused, and still others that support effective and competitive workflows.

The DOJ likewise recalibrated this spring by disbanding its crypto enforcement team and refocusing resources on crypto-facilitated crime (such as terrorism, narcotics, and hacking). Meanwhile, states are increasing enforcement efforts, led by the New York Office of the Attorney General. Other states are stepping up as well, with California’s DFPI bringing its first enforcement under the new Digital Financial Assets Law in June 2025, and state securities regulators continuing to conduct investigations and bring enforcement actions against crypto entities—underscoring that state consumer-protection and securities enforcement will continue even as federal priorities shift.  Practising Law Institute 1177 Avenue of the Americas New York NY 10036 USA (800)260-4PLI info@pli.edu 447509 447509 104 G5572 1:01:59 https://www.pli.edu/programs/ai-regulation-and-litigation-update-the-changing-legal-landscape-since-june-2025/447046?tCode=WTC5_RSS01 Regulation, compliance, and enforcement (Cybersecurity and data protection) Technology litigation Technology Artificial intelligence Regulation, compliance, and enforcement (Technology) This one-hour briefing delivers a focused update on the most significant artificial intelligence regulatory developments and litigation outcomes that have emerged since June 2025. The session will examine key changes in the rapidly evolving AI legal environment, providing practical insights for organizations across industries implementing AI technologies.

Attendees will gain an understanding of the legal, operational, and technological issues that must be overcome to structure a successful tokenized bond issuance, including ownership recordation, custodial arrangements, and servicing mechanisms.By blending traditional fixed income instruments with cutting-edge blockchain technology, tokenized bonds can accelerate transactions, deepen liquidity, and reduce issuance costs. Associated with these benefits are potential challenges, including financial crime compliance, interoperability issues, and evolving legal and regulatory standards. This presentation will equip attendees with the knowledge needed to understand the role of tokenized bonds in capital markets and how to navigate the opportunities and complexities they present.  Practising Law Institute 1177 Avenue of the Americas New York NY 10036 USA (800)260-4PLI info@pli.edu 440279 440279 104 G5520 1:01:15 https://www.pli.edu/programs/2025-china-trademark-litigation--enforcement-update-landmark-cases-legal-shifts-and-trade-war-implications/440273?tCode=WTC5_RSS01 Intellectual property Trademarks Trademark litigation Regulation, compliance, and enforcement (Intellectual property) International law As the global trade landscape continues to shift amid ongoing U.S.–China tensions and increasing tariffs, safeguarding intellectual property has never been more urgent. This presentation will spotlight the most significant Chinese trademark litigation cases from the past year and examine key changes that are reshaping how brands protect their rights in China.With many companies now rerouting their supply chains across Asia or reassessing their China-based operations, understanding the practical value of a trademark registration—and how it translates into real-world enforcement power—is essential. In today’s climate, a registration is more than a piece of paper (the trademark certificate); it is a critical tool for brand protection in cross-border business, ensuring the integrity of supply chain to market entry, especially in regions where enforcement practices and judicial protections can vary widely.In recent years, several Chinese government offices jointly issued a series of opinions signaling a substantial transformation in China’s intellectual property (IP) policy. The new framework aims to encourage innovation and strengthen protections by tackling bad-faith registrations, fostering fair competition, increasing transparency, and aligning more closely with international IP norms.This Briefing will analyze these developments through the lens of enforcement. We’ll explore top trademark infringement cases in the prior year, including precedent-setting damage awards, judicial interpretations, and strategic lessons for brand owners. Special attention will be given to how U.S. companies can adapt to the evolving enforcement landscape in the era of geopolitical uncertainty and protectionism.Amy Hsiao, a leading international IP attorney with deep experience in Chinese and Asian trademark law, will guide attendees through the practical implications of these changes and share expert strategies to strengthen brand defenses across jurisdictions.

In some instances, the application of certain rules may not be intuitive. For instance, in some instances, a U.S. investor may be subject to the passive foreign investment company (PFIC) or controlled foreign corporation (CFC) regime even though it may not be readily apparent that such regimes are implicated. The application of the PFIC rules often result in unexpected consequences. Further, foreign investors who invest into the United States may be subject to the Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act (FIRPTA) rules even though such investment, on its face, may not seem to implicate the FIRPTA rules. Finally, there are certain domestic rules and provisions contained in many tax treaties that may prevent a foreign investor from being eligible to claim treaty benefits.   Practising Law Institute 1177 Avenue of the Americas New York NY 10036 USA (800)260-4PLI info@pli.edu 437384 437384 104 G5493 1:01:29 https://www.pli.edu/programs/gsa-schedule-rules-and-risks-the-advisors-perspective-on-far-mandatory-disclosure-exposure-analyses-g5503/437742?tCode=WTC5_RSS01 Corporate law Corporate contracts Government contracts Regulation, compliance, and enforcement (Corporate law) Internal investigations (Corporate law) Operating in the GSA’s (General Services Administration’s) Federal Supply Schedules (FSS) program often presents distinct challenges to government contractors. Many of the program’s rules require disclosing pricing and practices, frequently opening contractors up to significant risk. Since 2008, the Mandatory Disclosure Rule (MDR) has given credence to the need for timely and accurate reporting to GSA. As the nature of business and practices react to dynamic changes in the federal marketplace, attorneys navigate their clients through mandatory disclosures. Often, external advisors are sought to provide quantifiable financial exposure regarding disclosure matters. This session provides insight into essential exposure analyses and best practices, as well as real-world experience in working with GSA’s mandatory disclosure team.  Practising Law Institute 1177 Avenue of the Americas New York NY 10036 USA (800)260-4PLI info@pli.edu 437742 437742 104 G5503 1:02:14 https://www.pli.edu/programs/global-developments-in-ai-and-the-law-regulation-enforcement-and-industry-impact/440284?tCode=WTC5_RSS01 Communications and telecommunications Regulation, compliance, and enforcement (Intellectual property) Regulation, compliance, and enforcement (International law) Artificial intelligence Regulation, compliance, and enforcement (Technology) This Briefing will be 90 minutes in length.As artificial intelligence technologies evolve rapidly, so too do the legal frameworks governing their use.

In the AI context, red teams are used to stress test AI for potential harms and to identify vulnerabilities in large language models (LLMs) and other generative AI models. Red teams can provoke generative AI models to try to get them to say or do things they were trained not to do. They can test generative AI models for outputs that could create legal liabilities, such as hallucinations, pornography and copyright infringement. They can also find gaps in AI security coverage and identify areas for improvement. Businesses can use the findings of AI red teams to improve their AI models, address security issues, and mitigate financial, reputational and regulatory risk.

The proliferation of conflicts and violence increasingly forces companies to consider whether and how to operate in such areas, as doing business in these regions is challenging and raises a host of legal and non-legal concerns. How can companies navigate the legal risks arising from sanctions? What are the litigation risks stemming from possible Anti-Terrorism Act claims? How can these risks be mitigated effectively? These are crucial issues that lawyers representing global companies must understand when navigating the challenges arising from operating in the most dangerous parts of the world.  Practising Law Institute 1177 Avenue of the Americas New York NY 10036 USA (800)260-4PLI info@pli.edu 437008 437008 104 G5490 1:00:17 https://www.pli.edu/programs/attorney-client-privilege-and-work-product-what-can-and-cannot-be-protected-from-disclosure-during-government-investigations-and-litigation/432376?tCode=WTC5_RSS01 Ethics and professional responsibility Attorney-client privilege Litigation Artificial intelligence Generative AI Disputes about the scope and applicability of attorney-client privilege and work product protection are not uncommon.

Recent expansions and updates to sanctions regimes have been driven by ongoing geopolitical developments involving Russia, China, Iran, and other high-risk jurisdictions. Entering 2025, the United States has sought to impose “maximum pressure” on Iran and on enacting multi-disciplinary national security initiatives against China, while efforts to resolve the conflict between Russia and Ukraine has raised the prospect of divergence or de-escalation of sanctions programs as between the U.S., EU and UK enforcement regimes. That said, civil and criminal enforcement continues robustly across governments and borders as sanctions investigations continue to ripen into enforcement actions.The rapid pace of developments in this space, and the complexity of the new sanctions programs, has posed a compliance challenge for businesses around the world. Sanctions compliance is therefore a mission critical matter for organizations of all shapes and sizes. Whether conducting due diligence or reviewing contract terms relating to a new customer or new investment, addressing the raft of sanctions imposed against countries such as Russia, Iran, or other key moderate- or high-risk jurisdictions such as China, Venezuela, Cuba, or Hong Kong, or assessing and implementing a corporate sanctions compliance program, stakeholders are encouraged to continuously assess and mitigate against potential sanctions risks and emerging vulnerabilities.This session will provide an overview of recent developments in U.S., EU, and UK sanctions, including sanctions imposed against Russia, Iran, Venezuela, and China, and will consider how ongoing shifts in geopolitics may affect government enforcement priorities and corporate compliance professionals alike. It will also cover recent published guidance and enforcement developments and trends, including in the financial services, transportation and virtual currency industries. The session will explore what these sanctions developments may portend for the future and discuss approaching cross-border compliance challenges.

Indeed, the latest projections for 2025 are that over $18.9 billion in assets will be dedicated to litigation funding. That number is projected to increase to $67.2 billion by 2037 – an annual growth rate of 11.1 percent.The defense bar, business industry groups and insurers have launched a multi-pronged response to the growth in litigation funding in an attempt to contain it. The central goal of these efforts is to force disclosure of both the identity of the litigation funders and the funding agreements, using such tools as:Policy objections;Ethics objections;State legislation;Discovery requests in specific cases/motions to compel;Court rules;Amendments to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure; andFederal legislation.The battle to regulate litigation funding is being waged in courtrooms, state legislatures and other forums across the United States, including the halls of Congress. As the size of the litigation funding industry increases, so do the scope of the efforts of business groups, the defense bar and insurers to contain it.This presentation will equip stakeholders on all sides of the litigation funding divide, as well as outside observers, with an up to the minute guide of the status of the various efforts to regulate and restrain litigation funding.   Practising Law Institute 1177 Avenue of the Americas New York NY 10036 USA (800)260-4PLI info@pli.edu 434966 434966 104 G5452 1:01:05 https://www.pli.edu/programs/doj-final-rule-on-u.s.-sensitive-personal-data-and-government-related-data-assessing-applicability-and-compliance-program-considerations/430270?tCode=WTC5_RSS01 Cybersecurity and data protection Data security Information privacy (Cybersecurity and data protection) Regulation, compliance, and enforcement (Cybersecurity and data protection) Regulation, compliance, and enforcement (Technology) The Department of Justice’s new rule, which takes effect on April 8, 2025, is directly responsive to policymaker recognition that new technologies allow for the rapid processing and assessment of large data sets, and that bulk data processing of U.S. person and government-related data can manifest U.S. national security concerns of various stripes.

This program explores how attorneys can enhance their legal practice by adopting listening techniques from professionals involved in high stakes situations: a retired FBI agent, an executive coach, and a clinical psychologist.Attorneys routinely operate in high-pressure environments, whether they are conducting depositions, negotiating settlements, interviewing witnesses, or advising clients. Mastering the cognitive and emotional components of active listening can strengthen attorney-client relationships, improve negotiation outcomes, and enhance trial advocacy. This session provides a comparative analysis of how professionals in law enforcement, coaching, and psychology leverage listening to build trust, uncover critical information, and navigate ethical dilemmas.Participants will gain insights into establishing rapport and eliciting information, as well as coaching strategies that foster self-awareness and accountability. The discussion will also address the ethical considerations unique to each profession and their relevance to the legal field.Why this topic is important for attorneys:Enhancing Client Representation: Strong listening skills enable attorneys to elicit more complete and accurate information from clients and witnesses, improving case strategy.Negotiation and Mediation: Listening techniques can help attorneys build rapport, detect deception, and influence outcomes in negotiations.Trial Advocacy: Effective listening techniques improve cross-examinations, witness examinations, and oral arguments by allowing attorneys to detect inconsistencies and respond strategically.

However, while the Trump Administration has “paused” FCPA enforcement, the FCPA itself is still in effect. What does this mean for companies operating internationally? And what are the practical effects of these changes for companies, especially amidst an international anti-corruption landscape that has evolved substantially beyond a sole focus on FCPA enforcement? There continue to be compelling reasons for companies to take appropriate steps to manage ongoing corruption and related risks, including the business benefits of strong compliance, the prospect of non-U.S. authorities moving to increase their enforcement activity, and a statute of limitations period that will run past the current administration. In addition, DOJ’s focus on enforcement targeting Cartels and Transnational Criminal Organizations (FTOs) poses new operational, legal, and compliance risks for corporations operating in Cartel and FTO-controlled areas. Certain matters resolved in the last few years are an important indication of the overlap between the FCPA and other regulatory regimes, including trade-related laws and regulations.

In the United States, the Department of Justice, on September 23, 2024, released an updated version of its guidance to prosecutors on the Evaluation of Corporate Compliance Programs (ECCP) to include AI and other emerging technologies. The revisions address consideration of AI in risk assessments, risk management, and policies and procedures. In addition to risks posed by AI, the DOJ also added language questioning whether compliance personnel have access to the same or similar technological resources (such as AI) as the core business teams, suggesting the DOJ recognizes the benefits AI and other technologies can bring to a compliance function.    Practising Law Institute 1177 Avenue of the Americas New York NY 10036 USA (800)260-4PLI info@pli.edu 429332 429332 104 G5378 1:02:55 https://www.pli.edu/programs/check-yourself-before-you-wreck-someone-else--feedback-with-equity-across-differences/428595?tCode=WTC5_RSS01 Professional development Diversity, inclusion, and elimination of bias in law practice Career development Communication skills (Career development) Leadership skills (Career development) Note: This program does not offer Bias/Diversity credit.Often times leaders avoid giving developmental feedback for fear of saying something wrong. In law firms, providing equity in feedback is critical for cultivating an equitable and inclusive workplace. When law firm partners fail to provide developmental feedback across differences such as gender, race, or socio-economic background, it fosters a climate of inequalities that substantially impair an associate's career growth. Without direct and actionable feedback, associates from underrepresented communities will face difficulties in identifying areas for improvement. This lack of supportive supervision not only stunts associates’ professional growth but also undermines their confidence and sense of belonging.  Practising Law Institute 1177 Avenue of the Americas New York NY 10036 USA (800)260-4PLI info@pli.edu 428595 428595 104 G5367 1:01:45 https://www.pli.edu/programs/wearables-in-the-workplace-putting-emerging-technologies-to-work/428570?tCode=WTC5_RSS01 Cybersecurity and data protection Information privacy (Cybersecurity and data protection) Regulation, compliance, and enforcement (Cybersecurity and data protection) Employee privacy Technology Employer mandated wearables have become commonplace in many workplaces.

Yet, most do not fully appreciate the fact that their skills, legal expertise and commitment to public service make them ideal candidates for solo or small firm practice. With a generational shift favoring entrepreneurism, advances in legal technology, and scarcity of affordable legal services, there has never been a better time to go solo.In this One-Hour Briefing, you will discover that having a law license means never having to be unemployed. Fast-track your learning curve as Maria E. Hall shares insights gained from over 10 years of supporting the launch of 115 diverse solo law firms in her role as director of the Los Angeles Incubator Consortium. She will be joined by Attorney Tara Mikkilineni, who will share her own experiences transitioning from government lawyering to a more entrepreneurial public interest way of practicing law.

These men and women are not “veterans” under the VA’s definition because they left the service with a less than honorable discharge. Since 2001, over 125,000 people have been discharged from active duty who do not have “veteran status” at the VA, including 30,000 service members who deployed to a contingency operation during their service. Frequently, a veteran’s discharge status was heavily influenced by factors outside of their control, such as the era of their service, their branch of service, or even racial discrimination. Moreover, servicemembers who suffer from PTSD or other mental health conditions are more likely to be given a less than honorable discharge than other servicemembers.Former servicemembers with less than honorable discharges are not automatically eligible for VA benefits. This means that they are not able to access the VA healthcare and VA monetary benefits that are available to other veterans. However, a servicemember with a less than honorable discharge can obtain “veteran status” and access to VA benefits through a process called the Character of Discharge (COD) Determination. The COD determination process at the VA can be confusing and complicated for many veterans to navigate on their own. This is particularly true for veterans with less than honorable discharges, who are disproportionally vulnerable. These veterans are three (3) times more likely to have suicidal ideation, are twice as likely to commit suicide, seven (7) times more likely to be unhoused, and have a 50% higher incarceration rate than vets with honorable discharges. As such, attorney assistance and advocacy through this process is vital and can be lifechanging.The VA recently made significant changes to the regulations governing this process. It is crucial for veterans advocates to understand the current regulations in order to give veterans the best advice on how to obtain the favorable COD determination and obtain eligibility for the crucial VA benefits that they are entitled to.

Stern, eds., NYU Press 2021), including those of lawyers dealing with the early efforts to address the travel ban in the first Trump Administration, lawyers representing detainees in the U.S. prison on Guantánamo Bay, lawyering on Election Day, those who have had clients sought by government officials because of their clients’ immigration status, and lawyers working to combat climate change. It will address the ethical constraints under which lawyers operate in such situations, but also strategies for working effectively and zealously within them and engaging in advance planning for them.
