Paula Duggan Vraa will be chairing the upcoming DRI Appellate Advocacy seminar set for February 10-12, 2016, in Scottsdale, Arizona. DRI is the leading organization of defense attorneys and in-house counsel in the United States, and is dedicated to enhancing the skills, effectiveness, and professionalism of defense lawyers, as well as improving the civil justice system. The seminar includes unique and practical topics, such as using public policy arguments in briefing and argument; settlement options on appeal; review of arbitration awards following Hall Street Associates; obtaining discretionary review, and a presentation by FantasySCOTUS partners on using big data to predict case results. The seminar also provides an excellent networking opportunity with colleagues, in-house counsel, and members of the judiciary. A link to the seminar is here: http://www.dri.org/Event/20160010
