It's time for the annual ALI-CLE (fka ALI-ABA) eminent domain conferences, to be held January 24-26, 2013 in Miami Beach, Florida.
In the "advanced" course, Eminent Domain and Land Valuation Litigation, we'll be covering topics such as "Condemning Underwater Mortgages," "An Engineer's Role in Damage," "How To Develop and Implement a Business Plan for an Eminent Domain Practice," and "Condemnor Beware: What Activities Will Make You Liable for Pre-Condemnation Damages." Along with Pacific Legal Foundation's Jim Burling and Cornell lawprof Robert Hockett, I'll be speaking on the panel about underwater mortgages. More details on the agenda and the faculty here.
The companion course, Condemnation 101: How to Prepare an Eminent Domain Case, covers the basics of eminent domain law, and although designed as an overview of condemnation law for the beginner or general practitioner, it's a great refresher course for the seasoned eminent domain lawyer. More details here.
These are the premiere conferences about eminent domain and condemnation law, and a great chance to learn a lot, meet your colleagues from across the nation, and depending on where you are coming from, escape winter's chill. Hope you can join us.
