SUMMARY:The Insurance Universe Post-Pinto v. Farmers (2021)
DESCRIPTION:Description: \nThe Pinto decision upended long-standing assumptions in California insurance litigation\, directly challenging the validity of CACI 2334 and setting off a wave of change across bad faith failure-to-settle claims. In response\, courts and legislators acted—producing two significant published opinions and ushering in Code of Civil Procedure § 999\, which now governs pre-litigation settlement demands. \n In this CLE\, mediator and retired Judge Vedica Puri\, plaintiff’s counsel Demián Oksenendler\, and insurance defense attorney Tamiko A. Dunham bring their unique perspectives to unpack: \n\n What Pinto really changed about bad faith litigation;\nHow recent decisions like Hedayati and Planet Bingo extend or limit that reasoning;\nWhy CACI 2334 had to be revised—and what the new instruction means for trials;\nHow CCP § 999 is reshaping settlement strategies and potential liability.\n\n Whether you represent plaintiffs\, defend insurers\, or mediate coverage disputes\, this program will help you understand and adapt to the new legal landscape. \nSpeakers: \n\nHon. Vedica Puri (Ret.) – ADR Services\, Inc.\nDemián Oksenendler\, Esq. – Plainitiff’s Counsel at Oksenendler Law\nTamiko Dunham\, Esq. – Insurance Defense Counsel at Nicolaides\, Fink\, Thorpe\, Michaelides and Sullivan\n\nLocation:\nWebinar \nCost:\n$0 – Complimentary Program \nSlide Deck >>>  \nHandout Materials >>>

SUMMARY:Optimized Advocacy: Ethical and Effective AI-Assisted Legal Practice
DESCRIPTION:Description:\nArtificial intelligence is rapidly changing how legal professionals draft\, research\, and strategize. But how can attorneys use these tools effectively—and ethically? \nIn this engaging and practical CLE program\, Dan Garrison\, CEO of OpenWallet and adjunct professor at the University of Utah College of Law\, and Judge Victoria Wood (Ret.)\, a seasoned neutral and retired judge\, explore how generative AI tools like ChatGPT can be used to enhance legal work product without compromising professional obligations. \nThe program will demonstrate a hands-on exercise for using AI to optimize (not replace!) human work product —showing how attorneys can train AI to improve outputs through structured prompting\, context building\, and iterative feedback. Through real examples and interactive discussion\, the speakers will highlight best practices for leveraging AI tools in tasks like legal drafting\, oral argument preparation\, and brief analysis. \nInterwoven throughout the presentation will be key ethical considerations under the California Rules of Professional Conduct\, including duties of competence\, confidentiality\, candor to the tribunal\, and oversight of non-lawyer (and now\, non-human) assistance.  \nAttendees will leave with practical takeaways\, sample prompts\, and an adaptable framework for integrating AI tools into their legal practice—safely\, ethically\, and effectively. \nSpeaker:  \n\nDan Garrison – CEO\nHon.
