Litigation sparked by financial losses investors suffered due to the alleged
Madoff Ponzi scheme will be the focus of a half-day seminar and webcast scheduled to take place at Chicago's Gleacher Center on the afternoon of
June 8, 2009.
The program is being produced by HB Litigation Conferences, formerly Mealey's Conferences.
"The faculty and agenda are being pulled together now, and will be adjusted as this dramatic legal and financial story unfolds," said Tom Hagy, president of HB Litigation Conferences.
Sharon Boothe, vice president at HB, added, "We are thrilled to be working again with Philip Bentley of Kramer Levin who did an extraordinary job moderating and speaking at our New York seminar."
Bentley, a partner with Kramer Levin Naftalis & Frankel LLP in New York, currently represents numerous defrauded Madoff investors with respect to their rights in connection with potential litigation. In the Bayou Group bankruptcy, Bentley represented 70 former hedge fund investors in litigation brought by Bayou to recover redemption payments.
The Chicago seminar will start at 1 p.m. and end at 5 p.m. local time (2 p.m. to 6 p.m. ET). The price to attend in person or via webcast is $595. The program will be fully accredited for continuing legal education (rules vary by state).
