Barbara L. Johnson will be on a panel at the Minority Corporate Counsel Association's 8th Annual CLE Expo 2009. The conference will take place on March 19-20, 2009 at the Chicago Marriott Downtown in Chicago, Illinois.

Ms. Johnson will be part of a panel discussion titled "Employment Law Risks In A Downsizing Economy." The financial crisis is certain to trigger corporate restructurings, divestitures, and layoffs. Consequently, it will be very important to reevaluate your companys policies in areas such as reductions in force and ERISA governed severance plans, and to ascertain potential liability because of retirement savings shortfalls. This panel will provide guidance to help you recalibrate your strategies.
