This seminar, presented by experienced employment attorney Alden Thomas, will explore recent trends, key rulings, and practical insights into what courts are finding persuasive (and what they're not) in summary judgment motions. Attendees will learn effective strategies for framing factual disputes, drafting compelling arguments, and avoiding common pitfalls that can undermine a motion or response. Whether you represent employers or employees, this session will provide valuable guidance to strengthen your advocacy and improve your outcomes at the summary judgment stage.
