16th Annual Clifford Tort Symposium Focuses on Predictability
Web Release, 03/05/2010The 16th Annual Clifford Symposium on Tort Law and Social Policy will be held April 8-9 at DePaul University College of Law.
“The Limits of Predictability and the Value of Uncertainty” will host a number of academicians from around the country to speak on this subject, including Neil Vidmar of Duke University School of Law, Valerie Hans and Jeffrey Rachlinksi of Cornell Law School and Benjamin Zipersky of Fordham University School of Law. Also featured speakers will be Stephen Daniels and Joanne Martin of the American Bar Foundation.
The Clifford Symposium was founded in 1994 by Robert A. Clifford, a nationally recognized Chicago lawyer, who endowed a faculty chair in tort law and social policy. Professor Stephan Landsman of DePaul currently holds the chair. Its purpose is to bring the latest scholarship and advances in legal practice to lawyers and scholars who concentrate in tort law, civil justice and related fields. A law review volume is produced from the scholarly works of each speaker and has become one of the most highly quoted sources of law on the subject.
The two-day program will be held at the DePaul Center, Room 8005, 1 E. Jackson Blvd., Chicago. It has been approved for 7.5 hours of CLE credit.
