1:00 PM-2:30PM
Presented by the ABA Business Law Section’s Government Affairs Practice Committee
Chair: Brett Lininger, Nemphos Braue and Old Line Government Affairs
How do you engage with the government when working remotely? The pandemic has demonstrated the need for business lawyers to seek assistance from those with access (even when offices are closed) to government officials on a wide variety of issues including obtaining financial relief for companies and nonprofits, receiving essential business designations, advancing legislation, and determining whether to reopen.
Join Nemphos Braue Of Counsel and Old Line Government Affairs Managing Director Brett Lininger, Chair of the Government Practice Committee, for this special webinar to help you determine ways to best access these resources before and after the upcoming crucial November election, as well as understand the reporting obligations and ethics of interacting with government.
Lobbying ethics CLE credit will be available to participants.
