Welcome to the Fall Edition of the JSH Reporter!
After a successful re-launch of the
JSH Reporter over the Summer,
we are thrilled to publish our Fall
Edition. If you are a new reader of
the JSH Reporter, welcome! We
have designed this publication
to provide information about
changes in the law and how these
affect a variety of industries, as
well as to provide updates on
what is happening within our firm.
In this issue, you’ll find articles
on family educational rights,
implied waiver of the attorneyclient privilege, changes in
anti-deficiency protection, the
right to attorney fee awards,
and tips on how to improve your
mediation success. Additionally,
you’ll find appellate highlights,
cases of note, recent JSH
accomplishments and upcoming
firm events.
If you haven’t already registered
for our upcoming firm seminar,
don’t delay! On November 5th,
JSH will host a free full-day
educational seminar for our
clients and potential clients at
the Phoenix Convention Center.
The morning half will focus solely
on governmental liability issues.
In the afternoon, the firm will
kick off its annual seminar titled:
“It’s All Fun And Games Until
Someone Gets Hurt.” You won’t
want to miss our entertaining and
educational new twist on an old
favorite, the Hollywood Squares,
which we have dubbed the “JSH
Squares.” The seminar will qualify
for 3 hours of CLE in Arizona
and CE credit in 30 states. The
day will be packed with useful
information, networking and fun,
and will end with a networking
cocktail reception.
We always appreciate your
thoughts and feedback on this
publication. What do you want
to read about? What interests
you? Share your ideas with me at
[email protected].
Keep an eye out for the Winter
issue of the JSH Reporter to be
published in January 2015. In the
meantime, have a safe and happy
holiday season, and hopefully we
will see you at one or both of our
seminars on November 5th.
