IMS Legal Strategies is proud to sponsor the 2024 ClaimsXchange Annual Conference, a premier event addressing the evolving challenges in the claims industry. Held from October 16-18 in Hamburg, NJ, the conference will bring together industry leaders to explore the latest trends and strategies in claims management. Connect with IMS Senior Trial Consulting Manager Marissa Harrington, JD throughout the event to learn how our team can support your complex litigation needs.
A highlight of the conference will be two timely, thought-provoking presentations by IMS Senior Jury Consulting Advisor Jill Leibold, PhD on Thursday, October 17. Dr. Leibold will join a session from 10:15-11:15 am ET on "Overcoming the Unrealistic Plaintiff (or Attorney) at Mediation" alongside Judge Bernice Donald, Traci McGuire, and Brian M. Sanders, Esq., CLMP. The panel will explore the escalating demands of the plaintiff's bar and discuss the preparation required of claims professionals and defense counsel before settlement discussions or ADR.
Dr. Leibold’s second speaking engagement, "Safetyism: The US Fixation on Living Risk-Free," will be co-presented from 2:30-3:30 pm ET with Margo Meta, Tanya Park, and Anthony Renaldo. The four industry experts will explore how the cultural rise of "safetyism" is influencing juror attitudes and driving unexpected verdicts. Session attendees will be equipped with evidence-based strategies to recognize and mitigate the effects of safetyism throughout the litigation process, from pre-suit through post-trial.
Do not miss this opportunity to connect with claims industry experts and gain valuable insights into how recent trends are reshaping the litigation landscape. Learn more about safetyism and its impact on defense strategies from Dr. Leibold below:
