Working Within the Shades of Gray: Frankfurt Kurnit’s Second Annual Advertising Law Summit

Legal questions confronting in house marketing lawyers rarely elicit simple "yes" or "no" answers. (If only they did!)  More often than not — to the consternation of clients working on tight deadlines — the answer is "maybe" or "it depends" or "there's a risk."  How do you help your marketing clients evaluate the risks and weigh them against potential rewards?

Join Frankfurt Kurnit on June 8th for our Second Annual Advertising Law Summit. We have gathered a group of thought leaders from the FTC, NAD, private practice and our own ranks to lead a series of interactive discussions about the most interesting and difficult legal issues facing the advertising business today. Our aim is to provide practical insights you can share with your marketing clients to help them achieve their dreams with lower risk.

But wait ... there's more!  Attendees will receive lunch, cocktails and up to 4.5 CLE credits at no cost!
