State Bar of Texas Live Webcast

How has Chapter 90 changed medical reporting regulations? Is the multidistrict litigation proceedings a savior, or a sinkhole? Do fewer cases always mean lower revenue? These questions and more will be discussed by a lineup of legal experts on Wednesday, Sept. 13 in a Webcast produced by the State Bar of Texas: “Toxic Tort Litigation and the Effects of Tort Reform.”

James L. Ware of Pappas Grubbs Price, P.C. will be one of four lead faculty members in the Webcast, joining other attorneys from Houston and Dallas. Participants can obtain two hours of Miminum Continuing Legal Education (MCLE) credit.
