Your corporate clients should know about the Delaware difference. Are you prepared to advise them?

Businesses that have the option of bringing litigation in Delaware often choose to do so because it is a very favorable venue. For that reason, businesses that have a choice often bring suit in Delaware even if they have no physical presence or connection to the state. And for that reason, it’s important for litigators to understand what makes Delaware so different.
This class addresses the many Delaware courts (their jurisdictions, procedures and guidelines), and the general legal culture in Delaware.

*Approved for 1.0 CLE in Delaware and Pennsylvania.

Presented by Attorney Frank Noyes and Kevin Fasic
