European Union regulations, directives and policies directly impact the practice of law for any New York lawyer whose clients live, work, do business or own property in Europe. While you may not be aware of how the European Union works or understand the full effect of EU laws on its 28 member states, many EU regulations and directives are binding on you and your clients in a variety of situations. An experienced panel will provide the knowledge you need about the basic functions and governance of the European Union; internal and external EU policies and programs; and an overview of EU law and policies in select areas of practice, including employment law, data privacy and environmental issues in Europe. Learn what the EU really means for you and your clients.
