Brian Casey will give two presentations during the . The first presentation is entiteld "The Effects Of Federal Financial Reform Legislation On The Insurance & Extended Warranty Industries," and will discuss the passage of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act in 2010 is the most broad sweeping financial services legislative reform since the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act in 1999. Like ripples in a pond, the effects of this primarily bank and finance centered legislation will spread to a multitude of industries including the world of insurance and extended warranties.
What does this new and complex legislation mean to the insurance and extended warranty industries? What significant effects will be felt as these numerous changes occur? Join attorney Mr. Casey as he examines this new legislation and discusses how it may affect the service contract and insurance industries.
The second presentation is entitled "The Legal Aspects Of Social Media." This presentation will discuss how it seems that everyone in the world today is involved in some form of social media. Even the corporate world, including the extended warranty and service contract industries, has embraced social media by establishing online identities to promote products and services to an audience all too willing to share their favorites with their personal networks. In the home, on the go, and in the office, social media has become a force to be reckoned with that shows little signs of slowing. But, what are the legal ramifications of our employers and employees communicating with the client base through social media? The potential legal issues are substantial and must be addressed in order to mitigate potential risks. Key areas of law such as litigation and electronic discovery, privacy, data security breach, and non-disclosure agreements and trade secrets are just some of the potential landmines facing companies using social media as a part of their communication and marketing strategies.
