(PRWEB) September 26, 2017 -- The Alabama Supreme Court’s newest Justice, William B. Sellers, has joined the faculty of the Alabama Business Law Conference on Friday, October 27 in Birmingham.
After nearly 30 years as a practitioner with a focus on, among other things, taxation, business organizations, and finance, Justice Sellers will provide attorneys with his perspective on business law issues, emerging trends, and tips for successful appeals.
Other topics at this one-day business law attorney summit include rights and liabilities of managers and members under Alabama’s LLC Act, drafting covenants under Alabama’s Restrictive Covenant Law, piercing the corporate veil for business owners and lawyers, effects of bankruptcy on relationships with customers and vendors, including clawbacks, and responding to data breach and cyber-security mishaps.
“Alabama’s LLC Act changes and a variety of other issues make this an important conference for business law attorneys,” says Alabama Law Weekly Executive Editor Joan Marie Sullivan. “We are obviously honored to have Justice Sellers speak and provide his best-practices insights.”
Joining Justice Sellers on the faculty are Alabama attorneys C. Ellis Brazeal, III of Jones Walker LLP, F. Gerald Burnett of Cabaniss, Johnston, Gardner, Dumas & O’Neal LLP, Adam K. Israel and Will Hill Tankersley of Balch & Bingham LLP, Jonathan W. Macklem of Christian & Small LLP, and Charles A. Ray of Lanier Ford Shaver & Payne P.C.
