LGN attorney Stephen M. Owen recently presented a live webcast CLE through Minnesota CLE titled Creating Job Descriptions, Postings, and Applications. The CLE was part of a series focused on hiring and firing.

Emma Ritter Gordon is an Associate at Lockridge Grindal Nauen practicing in the firm’s data breach group.

At Duke, she served as the Senior Articles Editor for the Duke Law Journal and as Co-President of the Duke Law and Technology Society. She has interned at the Department of Justice in the Computer Crime and Intellectual Property Section and at the North Carolina Solicitor General’s Office. Before going to law school, Emma worked for a major healthcare technology company.

Lockridge Grindal Nauen P.L.L.P. is a proud signatory to the letter linked below.  Directed to law school deans across the country from prominent US law firms, the letter condemns bigotry in any form, particularly hate speech.  It was drafted in response to the alarming increase in anti-semitism on college and university campuses in the last several weeks.  

The following excerpt from the letter reflects the core values of the Firm:

As educators at institutions of higher learning, it is imperative that you provide your students with the tools and guidance to engage in the free exchange of ideas, even on emotionally charged issues, in a manner that affirms the values we all hold dear and rejects unreservedly that which is antithetical to those values. There is no room for anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, racism or any other form of violence, hatred or bigotry on your campuses, in our workplaces or our communities.

Many thanks to Joseph C. Shenker, of Sullivan & Cromwell LLP, for drafting and circulating this important message. 

The letter is linked below:

Heidi Silton spoke with Kellie Lerner, Liz Castillo and Dan Gustafson about how to move an antitrust case forward once it is filed.  This is part of the Lunch and Learn Series sponsored by the American Antitrust Institute.  The goal of the Lunch and Learn Series is to provide practical litigation strategies and best practices tailored for both new and experienced lawyers seeking to enhance their fundamental skills.
