CLE and Networking: How to Settle a Medical Malpractice Case

CLE Events | Event Date: November 13, 2024 at 5:30 PM ET | The Refuge, 515 Broadhollow Rd, Melville, NY 11747

NAM (National Arbitration and Mediation) invites you to join us for an educational seminar and networking at The Refuge!

Alternative Dispute Resolution (“ADR”) is a quick and efficient option for the settlement of disputes. Many medical malpractice cases start as court proceedings and are later resolved through ADR, avoiding the need for trial. As is the growing trend, many disputes are never filed as lawsuits with courts at all and are resolved through ADR.

NAM neutrals, the Hon. Paul J. Baisley, Jr. (Ret.) and the Hon. Peter J. O'Donoghue (Ret.) will present an in-depth look at some of the integral issues to be addressed for the successful resolution of medical malpractice cases.

NAM is an accredited provider of CLE in New York, approved for traditional live-classroom format, as well as webinars, fully interactive video conferences, and pre-recorded videos. This course is approved for experienced and newly admitted attorneys. Attorneys will receive 1.0 credit in the area of Professional Practice.
