If you haven’t already, please mark your calendars for the 2017 Oregon State Bar Workers’ Compensation Section’s Annual Meeting! We will gather for the conference Friday, May 12, 2017 through Saturday, May 13, 2017 at Salishan Lodge on the beautiful central Oregon Coast.

The conference planning committee is putting together an exciting and informative program with ethics and access to justice CLE credits (approval pending). We will kick off with a lunchtime keynote speech by Prof. Emily Stieler from Northeastern School of Law about the future of and trends in workers’ compensation. Following an update from the Board, there will be presentations about a variety of topics, including the shoulder, access to justice, workers’ compensation practice, marijuana in the workplace, Medicare, and an appellate update.

As usual, there will be a family-friendly reception Friday evening. Please plan to join your colleagues for beverages, good food, and great conversation following the afternoon presentations.
