Presentation to New Jersey State Bar Association Annual Convention

Thursday, May 17, 2012
IMGP1403
I had a lot of fun yesterday presenting to the New Jersey State Bar Association's Annual Convention at the Borgata Hotel in Atlantic City.

My topic was "New Jersey Workers' Compensation Litigation: What's New Since Last Year." It was cool to condense a whole year's worth of new cases and changes in the law into a short presentation geared towards litigators. I spoke about general trends affecting the practice in New Jersey and then covered two topics in detail:
  1. Medical Provider Claims.
    • Decision in Burn Surgeons of St. Barnabas v. Shop Rite, decided August 31, 2011.
    • Impact of decision in Burns on bringing/defending Medical provider Claims.
  3. Use of "surprise" video surveillance at trial.
    • Decision in Louis Dubrel v. Maple Crest Auto Group, A-3321-10T3 (App. Div. Decided January 30, 2012).
    • Impact of Dubrel on introducing video at trial.
These are exciting topics that I have written about extensively. In regards to Medical Provider Claims, my in depth analysis is here. On using surveillance at trial - and using "surprise" surveillance in particular, check out my article from February 2012. Read More...

I just presented a 'Legal Update' to the North Jersey Claims Association on September 23, 2010. I had a really great time sharing with this growing group.

I talked about two new cases and the practical applications for claims professionals. The first case dealt with 'bad faith' on the part of a carrier and the second was on Medicare Secondary Payer (links are to places where I've discussed the two cases - Davis and Jackson, elsewhere).
