NYCLA Fifth Annual Art Litigation and Dispute Resolution Institute: International Ethics
The New York County Lawyer's Association invited Alexandra Darraby as the Keynote Speaker for the NYCLA Fifth Annual ART Litigation & Dispute Resolution Institute to be held in New York City on November 16, 2012. The keynote title is An Ethical GPS for International Practice. The Institute's faculty represents the top law firms and arts experts in the country, with each panel moderated by members of the New York County Supreme Court, the U.S. Court of International Trade and New York County Surrogate's Court.
Faculty experts from the bench, bar, noted art galleries, insurance agencies, art consultants, government and non-profit organizations, and the Art Law Firm, will discuss the complex issues confronting today's art world, including how to deal with pressing ethical issues in a global art environment.
At the 85th California State Bar Annual Meeting Last in Monterey, California in October 2012, Ms. Darraby moderated a two-hour international ethics program, The Ethics of Cross Border Practice. The interactive roundtable of ethics experts, litigators and arbitrators, coupled with her transactional experience, navigated the ethical maze of technology, confidentiality, discovery and work product in multi-jurisdictional practices.
"I am very honored to be chosen as the keynote speaker among such a distinguished faculty at this significant event," says Darraby. "Sharing my experiences on international deals is geared to creating a beneficial exchange with colleagues in the art bar. I congratulate NYCLA on commemorating five years of the Art Institute, and its commitment to the importance of the arts in legal practice."
Join faculty experts from the bench, bar, academia, art galleries, insurance agencies, art consultants, government and non-profit organizations as they take you through the most relevant issues in today's art world, including how to deal with the ethical issues that arise.
