Webinar: UR and IMR: How “U” and “I” Address Medical Treatment Requests
This webinar will address the procedures for requesting treatment authorization, improving the chances of getting treatment approved, appealing negative determinations, and when the WCAB gets involved.
Webinar: Evidence for Trial: What a Judge Wants; What a Judge Needs
This program provides instruction from a judge on how lawyers should prepare for trial and what evidence the court needs to issue a decision.
Webinar: Discovery & AI: Evaluating Privilege and work product issues in AI communications
What happens when attorneys use AI tools in the course of representation? Do those communications remain privileged, or does inputting client information into an AI platform risk waiver of work product protections? How should counsel respond when opposing parties seek discovery of AI-assisted work?
Worker’s Compensation: SIBTF Reform and Apportionment
SIBTF is being reformed. Art Johnson with Johnson Law Firm will address the proposed reforms and how to protect injured workers from losing out on significant benefits. In light of the reform, apportionment may be under attack. Jim Witkop with Witkop Law Group will address the importance of apportionment, and how defendants can secure reports that are substantial medical evidence. Retired Judge Dora Padilla will moderate. Admission includes a delicious, full-menu meal option from one of the best Bay Area Italian restaurants! A full bar will be available.
