Fried Goldberg Litigation Skills Clinic
Seminar for plaintiff’s attorneys
The Fried Goldberg Litigation Skills Clinic is designed for less experienced lawyers and provides a step-by-step guide on all aspects of pre-litigation cases. It teaches lawyers and paralegals how to handle personal injury cases from the signup of the case through preparing for trial.
Because we want to focus this seminar on helping less experienced lawyers, and their paralegals, we are requiring that attendees, both in-person and by live stream, certify that they are plaintiff’s attorney with 7 years or less experience handling plaintiff’s personal injury cases. If you do not think that you meet that criteria but still want to attend, please contact evita@friedgoldberg.com, and we will see if we can make an exception for you.
Each session is approved for 2 hours of CLE credit, and you can sign up for one session or multiple sessions. There is no cost to attend the CLE in person or view by live stream. However, Fried Goldberg LLC will apply for and cover the cost of Georgia CLE credits only for those who attend in person. Those who will attend via livestream will receive a certificate of attendance for your records or to apply for in-state CLE credit yourself or apply for out-of-state CLE credit.
In-person attendance is limited to 75 people.
After each session we will have a Happy Hour at Mission+Market restaurant in our building.
