As part of one of the largest and most recommended Dispute Resolution practices in the world, our North America Litigation & Government Enforcement lawyers offer practical insights on how to navigate the complexities your business may face with confidence, while achieving your strategic and commercial objectives. To share these insights, we have developed a webinar series that is focused on practical business solutions and the risks and challenges in doing business locally and internationally.

Please join us on Tuesday, March 13 at 12:00 pm EST for the first webinar in our 2018 series on “Managing Whistleblower and Retaliation Risk for Public and Private Employers.”

Our experienced Baker McKenzie practitioners and corporate panelists will share their experience successfully advising clients on what they need to know about whistleblower regulations in the US and best practices for internal investigations and managing retaliation risk once the whistle has been blown. The webinar will also discuss lessons from the SEC and CFTC’s 2017 whistleblower program reports and emerging trends.

CLE will be provided.
