The ACC STL and Bar Association of Metropolitan St. Louis Hosted 2023 Corporate Counsel Institute

ST. LOUIS - June 26, 2023 - PRLog -- On May 9, 2023, the Saint Louis Chapter of the Association of Corporate Counsel (ACC), in partnership with the Bar Association of Missouri St. Louis (BAMSL), hosted members from across the legal community for the 42^nd annual Corporate Counsel Institute (CCI).  This year the event was held at the historic Chase Park Plaza Hotel in Saint Louis' Central West End.

Over two hundred attendees gathered for the CCI, bringing together in-house counsel and their colleagues in private practice, as well as a host of professionals in the legal services industry for a day of learning and networking.

Sponsoring firms delivered informative presentations on a wide range of topics, including recent policy changes by the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), employee privacy laws, legal ethics, and the practice of law in a corporate environment.

Ty Ulmer, ACC's Committee Chairperson for the event, expressed appreciation for the support received, stating, "The CCI owes its success to the generous contributions of the sponsoring law firms and legal industry exhibitors, who dedicate their time and resources every year to make the event possible.  We would also like to extend our gratitude to the Bar Association of Metropolitan Saint Louis and its staff, as they have been invaluable partners with ACC on the endeavor over the years.  The collaboration between ACC and BAMSL allows us to create an event that offers a broader and more comprehensive experience than either organization could achieve alone."

We especially want to acknowledge and thank the 2023 CCI event sponsors, which include:

• DazyChain Legal Operations Software – Breakfast Sponsor
• Intapp – Event Sponsor
• Latitude Legal – Event Sponsor
• Levitas – Event Sponsor
• Thompson Coburn LLP – Reception Sponsor

Lunch featured guest speaker, Joel Schwartz, a St. Louis attorney and partner at Rosenblum, Schwartz & Fry.  Joel's presentation, titled "The Thing About Pam," discussed the defense of  his client who was falsely accused and convicted in the case.   The day ended with a fun-filled reception for attendees.
