Abuse Reporting

ORS 9.114, effective as of July 1, 2000, requires attorneys to complete
one hour of training every three years on the duties of mandatory child
abuse reporters. Many practitioners are not aware that they have a duty
to report child abuse when they have reasonable cause to believe that
a child with whom they have come into contact has suffered abuse or when
they have reasonable cause to believe that any person with whom they have
come in contact has abused a child.
Attend
this program and satisfy your MCLE requirement under ORS 9.114. Learn
what your duty to report is, when the duty applies, what abuse is and
how to report it. Other topics include the meaning of 'reasonable
cause' and 'comes in contact,' the reporting exception
based on privileged communications and reporting someone's intention to
commit an act of child abuse.

Address elder law issues before they become problems. Here are the
facts: 1) During the 20 years after the first baby boomers reach retirement
age in 2010, the number of Americans over age 65 will increase from 43
million to 70 million; 2) The 'oldest old' (those over age 85)
constitute the fastest-growing segment of the population, increasing from
3.5 million in 1994 to 6 million by 2010; and 3) The Census Bureau projects
that the elderly population will concentrate in the South and West, doubling
in the seven western states by 2020.
Regardless of your area of practice, age or socio-economic background,
elder law issues are a reality that you will face in both your professional
and personal life. This seminar will arm participants with knowledge,
techniques and strategies to prevent problems and develop long-term plans.
Cosponsored by the Elder Law Section.

Remember the 'New Economy'? All the rules were different
- the Economy was booming, dot-coms were proliferating and venture capital
was seemingly plentiful. Computer and Internet law was influenced by these
developments in many ways. Times have changed. The Economy is no longer
flourishing, many dot-coms are a bust, and the Internet and high-tech
sector seems to be those hardest hit. Computer and Internet law continues
to reflect these changes. This seminar will address some of the changes
that have resulted from the New…new Economy.
