Business lawyers who need CLE credits or who just want to rub shoulders and network should head to the annual spring meeting of the American Bar Association's Business Law Section, which will be held March 15-18 at the Renaissance Hotel and the Washington Convention Center in the District. More than 60 topics will be covered, including e-consumer issues and regulations; risks in internal investigations; cross-border mergers, acquisitions and philanthropy; and patent risks. Speakers will include federal judges, state supreme court justices, corporate executives, academics and representatives from the Justice and Treasury departments and several other federal agencies.
