The Health Care attorneys at DSV are very involved in DRI and specifically in the Medical Liability and Health Care Law Committee. The Medical Liability and Health Care Law Committee has more 1400 members nationwide and presents two seminars annually. I have the honor of serving as the current Chair of the Medical Liability and Health Care Law Committee.
These unprecedented times have caused DRI to cancel its in-person seminars for the foreseeable future; however, the Medical Liability and Health Care Law Committee is presenting a virtual Medical Liability and Health Care Law Seminar on August 20-21, 2020. This virtual seminar will be done on a state-of-the-art virtual platform, which will allow the attendees to have a true seminar experience with CLE, networking opportunities, a Committee business meeting, and a DRI for Life activity. DSV’s Health Care attorneys will attend this virtual seminar to ensure that they remain up to date on the cutting-edge trends in medical malpractice defense.
The Medical Liability and Health Care Law Committee also presents an annual seminar which specifically addresses nursing home and assisted living litigation. DSV’s Health Care attorneys have attended, helped plan, spoken at, or chaired this seminar in some fashion for the last 14 years. DSV Partner, Jennifer Strange, is the current Vice Program Chair for this year’s seminar. Given the current climate, DRI’s 2020 Nursing Home/ALF Litigation Seminar will also be virtual. The virtual seminar will be held on September 10-11, 2020, using the same state-of-the-art virtual platform. This virtual seminar will also feature excellent CLE, networking opportunities, a Committee business meeting, and a DRI for Life activity. DSV’s Health Care attorneys will participate in all these activities to ensure that we continue to represent and defend our nursing home and assisted living facility clients using all the latest tools and techniques.
