West Legal Works Townsend & Townsend Join Panel for
West Legalwork's Jan. 30 Live Webcast on
E-Discovery and Patent Litigation


If your practice areas involve Discovery, Intellectual Property Law, Litigation & Appeals or Patent Law, be sure to sign up for "E-DISCOVERY AND PATENT LITIGATION: Practical Strategies for Saving Time and Money in the High Stakes World of Patent Litigation," a three-hour live webcast produced by West Legalworks. The webcast will air on January 30th at 10 a.m. PST and will feature SF Legal's Data Forensics Director David Townsend and Technical Director Ruth Townsend as part of a panel of e-discovery specialists, lawyers, and in-house counsel. The panel will discuss e-discovery methods and best practices in patent litigation that will keep you ahead of the competition. According to West Legalworks, "Patent litigation is on the rise. (In 2006, 2,830 patent cases were filed!) And the damage awards are staggering. Last year, the median verdict in a patent case was $4.2 million. The recent U.S. Supreme Court and Federal Circuit decisions have brought additional notable changes to the patent litigation landscape. With the cost of litigation soaring, now more than ever, attorneys must diligently manage, disclose, and retain their documents." This webcast is an MCLE-accredited course providing 2.75 credits upon completion. You can sign up for the live webcast online and also order audio tapes after the event.
