12:30 REGISTRATION

1:00 CONFLICTS AND CONUNDRUMS: WHAT THE WATCHDOGS WORRY ABOUT

How do you identify conflicts? Why should you care about Jay Alix v. McKinsey & Company? What are your obligations to find out the rest of the story that your client doesn’t appear willing to share with you? With the use of technology, what is actually considered a signature? This panel will give you their thoughts on these issues and more and discuss best practices to stay on the right side of the law.

Aria Eee, Bar Counsel, Board of Overseers of the Bar, Augusta

2:00 BREAK

2:15 CONSUMER CORNER

The Motion to Allow and Disallow Claims is now the stuff of legends, but what do we do now to address claims in a Chapter 13? There is nothing worse than being surprised by a previously unknown asset that the Chapter 7 Trustees are now identified. This panel will touch on these issues and other hot topics in consumer cases.
