Navigating Gender Bias

6/28/2018

 
Picture
As we know from The Silence Breakers and #MeToo Movement, gender bias still permeates our courtrooms and boardrooms.  For this reason, gender bias training is essential for attorneys in all areas of the law. On June 27, 2018, LLF managing shareholder Renée Welze Livingston was a featured panelist on a MCLE program sponsored by the Contra Costa County Bar Association Women’s Section titled, “Navigating Gender Bias: Talks & Tips from Seasoned Practitioners.” Together with the Hon. Ellen James (Ret.) and Hon. Anita Santos, attendees learned how to identify and overcome gender bias for a more gender-neutral professional environment.

Proposition 65 Update

6/13/2018

 
Picture
Warning requirements are changing, effective August 30, 2018, for products sold in California which contain any of the more than 950 listed substances known to the state to cause cancer or reproductive harm.  Many manufacturers and distributors are unprepared for these changes, some of which impose new warning requirements for internet and catalog sales. On June 13, 2018, LLF shareholder Craig A. Livingston gave a Prop 65 update to members of the Legal & Legislative Affairs Committee of the Sporting Arms and Ammunition Manufacturers' Institute at its semi-annual meeting in Overland Park, Kansas.  Craig is providing guidance to a SAAMI working group tasked with developing Prop 65 compliance strategies. SAAMI members include large and small manufacturers and distributors of firearms, ammunition and related products and accessories serving the hunting and shooting sports industry.
