Kathleen Devlin, Esq. Presented at New Jersey State Bar Convention in Atlantic City, On Issues In Attorney Malpractice Coverage

Kathleen Devlin, the Vice-Chair of the Malpractice Insurance Special Committee of the New Jersey State Bar Association (“NJSBA”), was a panelist at a seminar during the recent NJSBA Annual Convention in Atlantic City. The seminar, “Gaps in Your Malpractice Coverage: Avoid Pitfalls of Mergers, Spinoffs, Lateral Hires and Retirements,” included an in-depth discussion of the necessity of careful insurance planning when a mid to large size law firm is involved in acquiring a smaller firm, when a group within the firm “spins off”, when a firm brings in laterals, when a firm dissolves, or when partners retire.
