HBD Partner Ben Murphy Speaks at Northern District of California Judicial Conference

Topic: "When Big Law Firms Fail"
April 10, 2010
Sonoma, California

In the wake of the liquidations of Brobeck and Heller, the risk of law firm failures is greater than ever.  This panel will address factors that can lead to the collapse of large law firms, steps that can be taken to facilitate an orderly dissolution, reasons why law firms have little value in liquidation, and some of the claims that may be asserted against former partners or their new firms.  Mr. Murphy is a panelist on this topic.
