The Association of National Advertisers and the Brand Activation Association will be hosting their 41st annual Marketing Law Conference at the Marriott Marquis in San Diego, CA from November 4-6. Proskauer is a sponsor of the conference, and will be speaking on two separate panels. Lawrence Weinstein, the co-chair of Proskauer’s Intellectual Property Litigation Group and of our False Advertising and Trademark Practice, and partner Alexander Kaplan will lead a plenary panel titled “A View from the Bench: Federal Judges Discuss their Views of Advertising Litigation and Litigants,” together with Judges Faith Hochberg and Beth Freeman. Associates Jeffrey Warshafsky and Jennifer Yang will also conduct a presentation on what marketing executives need to know to prevent avoidable advertising challenges. If you will be attending the conference, we hope to see you there!
