The diverse panel – a claimant’s attorney, a defense attorney and a Missouri lawyer/legislator – will discuss significant changes made to the workers’ compensation law and the anticipated effect within Missouri. The moderated program will also include an open forum for questions and comments from attendees.

ü    A “Meet and Greet” Informal Social Hour is planned from 4 pm to 5 pm immediately following the Workers’ Compensation CLE on September 22, 2005 at the Westin Crown Center Hotel. There is no charge for this social hour.

 

Legislators, employers, health care professionals and attorneys are invited to continue discussions and exchange business cards in a relaxed setting. Attendance prizes will be announced.
