Designed for in-house counsel generalists, IP practitioners, and litigators alike, this program brings real-world context, recent case law, and practical guidance you can apply inside your own organization — with a clear framework for advising on AI adoption, from the boardroom to the day-to-day desk-level decisions that carry the most legal risk.

Rewriting the Rules: The EU's New Product Liability Directive and What It Means for US Companies (Sept. 23, 2026)
What In-House Counsel Need to Know Before the Transposition Deadline
The EU has rewritten the rules on product liability — and US manufacturers selling into Europe, whether directly, through distributors, or via online platforms, are squarely in scope. Directive (EU) 2024/2853 replaces the 40-year-old 1985 regime with a markedly claimant-friendly framework, and the clock on transposition is already running.
Join us for a practical, one-hour session built for in-house counsel who need to get ahead of this shift now, not after it takes effect.
What's changing, and why it matters:
A broader definition of "product" — software, AI systems, and digital components are now squarely covered
A wider net of liable parties — importers, authorized representatives, fulfillment providers, and platforms all face new exposure
A lower bar for claimants — presumptions of defect and causation, paired with enhanced disclosure obligations, significantly ease the evidentiary burden
Broader damages, narrower defenses — strict liability remains, but the playing field has shifted decisively toward claimants
Amplified risk — collective actions and third-party litigation funding raise the stakes further
Member States have until December 2026 to transpose the Directive — but early action is critical. We'll walk through what to prioritize now: product design review, software lifecycle management, warnings, cybersecurity posture, contractual risk allocation, and insurance coverage.
Walk away with a clear picture of what's coming and a practical roadmap for getting your organization ready before the deadline hits.
2026 Contracts & Negotiations Master Class Series, Pt. 3: From Contract to Claim - Ensuring Your Insurance Requirements Deliver Real Coverage
Too many organizations don't discover their insurance requirements have failed until a claim is already on the table — and by then, it's too late to fix a poorly drafted clause or an unverified certificate. This program is a critical checkpoint for in-house counsel who negotiate, draft, or rely on contractual insurance provisions. Attendees will learn how to spot the gaps between what a contract requires and what a policy actually covers — before those gaps turn into denied claims, uncovered losses, or costly disputes. Don't wait for a loss to find out your coverage was never really there.
2026 Contracts & Negotiations Master Class Series
Today’s in‑house counsel are expected to do more than “review the contract.” They’re risk strategists, deal accelerators, and the first line of defense when something goes sideways. This four‑part series follows up on the intro level 2025 Contracts & Negotiations Master Class Series. Providing "201" level guidance, this series is built for attorneys who already know the basics and want to level up—moving from issue‑spotting to shaping contracts that anticipate problems, align with business realities, and stand up under scrutiny.
Each session dives into a high‑impact contracting area where in‑house lawyers routinely face pressure, ambiguity, and evolving risk. The focus is practical, actionable, and grounded in the day‑to‑day realities of supporting a business.
When Congress Calls, Part 1: Navigating Legal and Reputational Risks in Congressional Investigations of Your Company (Sept. 16, 2026)
Congressional investigations are unique legal proceedings with significant risks for companies and executives. Investigations include both familiar legal processes, such as document productions, and procedures that can surprise even experienced corporate counsel, such as preparing a CEO for live, widely broadcast testimony before Congress on very short notice.

In this panel discussion, two leaders of Covington & Burling’s nationally ranked congressional investigations practice, and a crisis communications specialist steeped in congressional investigations from nationally ranked Trident GMG, will discuss congressional investigations and the strategies for navigating them successfully. Designed for senior in-house counsel and legal executives, this program will deliver practical insights and actionable legal, communications, and political strategies for advising corporate leaders.
