JOHN WILLIAMS TO PRESENT CLE SEMINAR AT ANNUAL ABA MEETING
John Mark Williams was recently selected to present at a Continuing Legal Education (CLE) seminar at the Annual Meeting of the American Bar Association in Chicago, IL. The CLE, put on by the ABA Tort Trial & Insurance Practice Section, was designed to help attorneys navigate through conflict and ethical issues in the area of insurance defense. The CLE examined the tripartite relationship which is the relationship between a liability insurer, the insured client and the lawyer retained to represent the insured client.
