Securities Act Registration Exemptions

November 12, 2007

1:15 PM - 2:15 PM CST

Robert J. Minkus, a partner in Schiff Hardin's Corporate and Securities Group, will speak at the Understanding the Securities Laws 2007 program sponsored by the Practising Law Institute (PLI). The program is scheduled for November 12 and 13 at the University of Chicago's Gleacher Center in downtown Chicago.  Mr. Minkus' session, "Securities Act Registration Exemptions," is scheduled for November 12 at 1:15 p.m.

Especially for lawyers practicing corporate or securities law in a post-Sarbanes-Oxley environment, knowledge of the securities laws is essential for helping clients avoid crippling and time-consuming litigation. This program will provide you with an up-to-the-minute understanding of the interplay of the basic underpinnings of the Securities Act of 1933, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and related SEC rulemaking. Emphasis will be on both the substance of these acts and their rules and on how a securities lawyer can solve practical problems. The faculty will include experienced securities lawyers and high-level SEC staff.
