The Oregon State Bar Workers’ Compensation Section’s Annual Meeting is coming up on Friday, April 29, 2022 through Saturday, April 30, 2022! Join us in person at Salishan Lodge on the beautiful, central Oregon Coast. An online option will be available for those who prefer to attend virtually. Please note that, if circumstances require, the conference will be moved to an all-virtual format.

The conference planning committee has put together an engaging and informative program. We will kick off Friday with a lunchtime keynote speech from Justice Martha Walters, the Section’s annual meeting conducted by Executive Committee Chair, Allison Lesh, and news from WCB.

Presentations will follow with CLE credit (approval pending) regarding trans safe workplaces, assessing credibility, workers’ compensation practice tips, the intersection of professionalism and ethics, trying Covid-19 and related cases, and the ever-popular appellate update from Greig Lowell.

The Section will host a family-friendly reception Friday evening. Please join your colleagues for beverages, good food, and great conversation following the afternoon presentations!
