Hinshaw & Culbertson LLP attorney,
David P. Hartnett, will be a featured moderator at the 2012
LMRM Conference. The Conference will take place February 29 – March 2, 2012 in Chicago, Illinois, at The Westin Chicago River North. Mr. Hartnett will be moderating the topic," The Plaintiff’s Lost or Impaired Remedy: Issues of Proof Regarding Collectibility," from 1:45 p.m. to 2:45 p.m. on Wednesday, February 29, 2012.
Valuing a plaintiff's claimed loss often turns on the issue of collectibility. Over the last year, the existing case law on the subject has been augmented by important decisions that provide guidance on how to analyze collectibility issues, what evidence can be considered and in what manner, who has the burden of proof, and what pretrial remedies are available. The panelists will review those recent decisions and discuss the developing principles in this significant area of legal malpractice litigation, including the impact that insurance and other collateral sources (or lack thereof) may have on assessing "collectibility."
This panel is part of the Legal Malpractice series of topics of the LMRM Conference.
Other Legal Malpractice Topics include:
